As I support my grandmother with dementia, this book was extremely helpful understanding the disease, effective treatment, and the caregiver’s role. Dr. Devi’s book was a well written explanation of Alzheimers on a spectrum with patient experiences.

I enjoyed listening to her stories of those with Alzheimer's. She did a very good job of proving her point that it is a spectrum. Each person is an individual who is affected differently by this disease.

It has opened up more avenues of understanding for me. I volunteer in a nursing home with my dog. We see many people with dementia. Some days they repeat many of the same conversations as before. Other times they reveal fascinating insights into a world gone by. They of course love the visits with my dog which she enjoys just as much no matter what the conversation is.
