Alzheimer’s Disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. As a larger percentage of our population enters their golden years, it is becoming essential to understand how to care for people suffering from Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.
Diane Bradshaw stood by her husband, Arnold Bradshaw, as he battled for five years with Alzheimer’s. During that time she kept a daily log of the care provided to him and the physical toll of the disease. Diane has turned that log into the new book, I Am Arnold.
In her book she describes the good and the bad sides of nursing care facilities.
Join us and speak with Diane about the joys and frustrations of caring for a loved one with dementia.
