I just ordered The Dementia Handbook: How to Provide Dementia Care at Home from Amazon. I'll let you know if it's good.

Hello Alzheimer is one of the best books with the most helpful hints and suggestions I have read. I wish I had come across it at least 4 years ago.

On Pluto by Greg O’Brien good. He is a career writer/author, who also has dementia and he is able to speak very clearly about the disease and how it is affecting him and his perception on it. I think understanding our loved ones experience from someone who can clearly communicate it is very helpful.

Agree: the 36 hour day is great. Check out your Public Library. Books esp., mine even has puzzles and other things you can do w/your loved one.
