Observations and Recommendations

From: Losing me, While Losing You

$2.50

In this chapter, the editors ask caregivers to identify whether or not their experiences as a caregiver had affected how they feel about themselves. They also ask what recommendations they would make to others just starting the journey of caring for or supporting someone with dementia. Finally, they ask if there were other aspects of their caregiving stories which they would like to expand on or share.
