"When Words Are Not Enough" provides basic facts and suggests ways that caregivers might have an impact upon the holistic well-being of care recipients with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. A secondary purpose of this book is to suggest ways to help caregivers cope with the ongoing stress associated with their labor of love. Chapters in this book touch upon a range of concerns, including a review of the needs of caregivers. Each chapter ends with a case study analysis. The book concludes with a listing of resources and an extensive bibliography. This book defines, describes, and analyzes issues concerning the needs of dementia caregivers, especially those suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Overall, it attempts to provide advice, basic facts, and suggestions that caregivers might use to impact upon their own holistic well-being as well as that of care recipients. Coping with the ongoing stress of caregiving is difficult enough under the best of circumstances. The authors hope that the suggestions provided in this volume will make the job of caregiving less of a burden and transform it into a labor of love. This book is unique for a number of reasons. First of all it deals with caregivers' needs from a holistic frame of reference. Secondly, it targets caregivers of people who have been diagnosed with dementia of the Alzheimer's type and the professionals and paraprofessionals who care for them. Thirdly, Baby Boomers, in particular, will appreciate the holistic view embraced by the book. As this group continues to age, they will continue to care for their elders, their adult children, grandchildren, and each other.
