Who Are You? (Surviving Dementia, From One Caregiver To Another)

By Jen Leinweber

I started my caregiving journey twelve years ago when my dad was diagnosed with dementia. During these years I've learned a lot about dementia and how to provide care for dementia patients.

Working through this book I've done my best to provide helpful information about how to best care for your loved one while still maintaining your sanity. Additionally I've included information about getting affairs in order and organizing to keep stress levels to a minimum.

This short book is packed with information, tips and techniques to help caregivers and their family members in the care of a dementia patient. I have purposefully kept it short because I know the average caregiver won't have time to wade through a 500 page dissertation.

I've included helpful links to find additional resources in the back of the book.

About me ... isn't that always the biggest question! How to sum up the vastness of who you are in a few words. Well, here's my attempt - enjoy!I'm the oldest of four children. My siblings and I are quite close. I grew up in a small town but not too far from a major metropolis. I've travelled and seen quite a bit of the world. I'd like to see more. I enjoy an eclectic selection of music, from classical to modern top 40. I can't stand house, or twangy country. I enjoy a good cup of coffee, especially first thing in the morning. I read - constantly. I started putting letters together into words at the age of five and don't think I've been without an active book ever since.I love my family. I honor and respect all veterans and current servicemen and servicewomen.I am passionate about elder care. I love what I do and being able to make a difference in their lives. If I could have one wish it would be to help others catch my passion for caring for seniors.
