“62 Tips For Caregivers of Alzheimer´s To Delay Shutdown” defines what it means to be a home caregiver of a loved one with Alzheimer's on the loneliest possible life journey.

This book details how caregivers are up against a huge wall of emotions that work aggressively against their efforts when trying to care give for a family member with Alzheimer's.

Readers of 62 Tips For Caregivers will discover from this caregiver how to overcome this silent battle of their unexpressed deepest feelings even to their family and closest friends so as not to intrude and burden them with added emotional weight. These emotions are kept in a human "vault" which makes caregiving extremely sensitive, lonely and collapsible. Sadness is deep, daily and usually “hidden”.

Caregiving for a loved one with Alzheimer's without any outside help is extremely difficult but in most cases there is no other option. Outside professional help cannot respond “in real time” when radical behavioral changes occur. Only home caregivers can. There are no two profile behavioral changes alike, not even in the same stage of the disease.

There isn't a standard therapy to apply. There are no fixed "do this'' and "do that" rules, or a “to do list” for the caregiver to follow. Even the stages of Alzheimer's vary in their characteristics. Hospice Care begins at home the very first day it is diagnosed.

This book promises to be a shortcut for caregivers as it details experiences from successes and failures from a home caregiver as a guide to deal with these behavioral changes. “What worked for me may not work for you.” Caregivers are completely on their own.

Discover in 62 Tips For Caregivers Of Alzheimer´s To Delay Shutdown, my own invented personalized therapies that will empower a caregiver with new tools and strategies from an experienced home caregiver to mitigate “in real time”changes of behavior of their loved one.

Readers will learn as there are no two Alzheimer's victims alike, there are no two caregivers alike. We are all different in the way we react. This book details personalized activities and therapies that can vary because we are all dealing with very different behavioral changes.

62 Tips For Caregivers of Alzheimer´s provides tools to manage our vulnerability to frustrations that test our temperament and desperation that often sets in. We easily forget that what is logical to us is not logical to the person we are caring for.
Readers will identify as home caregivers who will sacrifice whatever it takes, suspend any activity we enjoy, ignore our basic necessities, and neglect our health to prevent our loved ones from shutting down.

“62 Tips for Caregivers Of Alzheimer´s To Delay Shutdown will provide that much needed guidance, support and instill confidence and hope to those navigating the loneliest journey of their lives.

I realize there are other "amateur home caregivers" like me on their own trying to take care of a loved one with Alzheimer's Disease. Like everyone I had to learn the hard way by trial and error for 6 years to mitigate tremendous changes in behavior with my wife. It's not easy as she was in the beginning of the advanced stages unable to speak.

Uncover the secrets in 62 Tips For Caregivers Of Alzheimer´s To Delay Shutdown to effectively manage the behavioral changes of a loved one with Alzheimer's and take control of your home caregiving journey.

3.5 stars

The author wrote a diary as he was caregiver for his wife of 43 years when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. That diary became this book (it’s more about the length of a novella).

I am rating this good. It is hard to criticize such a personal story like this, but I only rate it as “low” as I am because there was a lot of repetition (like you would find in a diary, really). There were a few spelling and grammatical errors, as well.

But really, it’s a heartwarming story of a man’s incredible love for his wife as he tries to stop her mind from shutting down. He talks about all their daily activities and how much he tries to connect with her through these activities and in other ways. Oh, she does not speak.

I have had relatives with Alzheimer’s, but I’ve not been directly involved with them as they went through it, so I’ve not seen it firsthand. I hadn’t realized there were a lot of physical issues that go along with it, in addition to the mental issues. I can’t imagine how difficult this kind of caretaking would be.

This book gave a good portrayal of what to expect when caring for someone with Alzheimer’s. It is an easy to read book and can be read easily in a few hours. I particularly enjoyed the author’s routine with his wife. This would be a good preparation tool to those newly diagnosed or their family members.
