The Circle - A Walk with Dementia Review

The Circle - A Walk with Dementia
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Sally Smith's personal account provides much needed validation for the myriad of emotions we experience when someone we have loved so deeply and for so long begins to slip away into the hands of this horrible disease. The humor and warmth with which she writes is a valuable gift to anyone struggling with this issue, and with all proceeds going to aid research efforts, it is not only a must read, but a must buy.

The Circle was published with a vision of helping families and caregivers of aging, mentally frail loved ones cope with the ongoing realizations of dementia. This book is unique in that it addresses the emotional and human side of this disease while most available books concentrate on the dry medical practicalities. Sally Smith, whose inspiring personal account--closing the family home and moving her mother into an assisted living facility--resulted in a book that critics have said is "healing, hilarious and very helpful to those of us sharing similar experiences." The manuscript was given as a gift to the Medical University of South Carolina and published to raise awareness and support for research into Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, dementia, vision and hearing loss and other age-related problems. 100% of the net proceeds will benefit research into these issues.

I cannot begin to give this book enough credit! I bought this book as a reference to translate our human conditions to see what Wallach recommends for the similar situation in Exotic Animals. Very interesting information to then translate back to our human conditions!
