Summary: Personal experiences with Alzheimer's
Comment: I found this book profoundly moving since my wife is caring for an individual with advanced Alzheimer's. The statistics are frightening. Metlife Foundation surveys have found that adults 55 and older fear Alzheimer's more than cancer. 4.5 million Americans currently have Alzheimer's. Some of the symptoms we have observed personally include wandering, inability to perform even basic human tasks (such as unlocking a public toilet door from the inside), striking out at people, grabbing small children, wandering,using foul language and losing an understanding of colors. I have recently read Hermine Hilton's new book, Fuhggeddaboutit! The book that will help you stop worrying about your memory (and Alzheimer's). I benefited from her hundred tips on improving your memory. The book is brand new and should be listed on amazon.com soon. Right now I found it at www.lulu.com/tontent/237234. One other important thing I have learned. Never discuss something an Alzheimer's victim has done wrong or try to contrict him or her. Often their brain is operating and hearing even though they can't responsd and you run the risk of making them needlessly upset.

Summary: Critical of Jesus, disturbing comparision!!
Comment: Right off the author critizes the writers of the New Testament. What does faith have to do with this book??? He puts down the Bible as contradicting. His book is only his perspective!!! I really did not like it at all.

Summary: A must read if involved with Alzheimer's
Comment: Reading all the books I can find on this disease. This book was suggested as a must read at a Alzheimer's seminar. I am a caregiver trying to understand and care for my mother. This is a very informative book in the eyes of the person with Alzheimer's. Very eye opening for me. God Bless all who are dealing with this disease and those who love them and want the best for them. Thank you Mr. Taylor and may God Bless you and your family.

Summary: A Dementia Patient Comments
Comment: I have early dementia, fitting the criteria for Alzheimer's. Like the author, I was a psychotherapist in my 50s when my difficulties became such that I couldn't work. It's incredibly powerful to read his words, and see what I would have said if I were only so gifted. Most importantly, I want doctors to read this book, as most of them relate only to dementia as it looks in the end stage, and aren't familiar with what the early disease process looks like.
