Navigating Alzheimer’s Book

$29.95

“I was deeply moved by Carolyn’s story. Hers is truly a brave one. I knew little of this condition when I started reading Carolyn’s book, but the way has traced her and Richard’s steps from diagnosis to her experiences navigating the health system as a carer has given me such an insight into Alzheimer’s disease and what carers are up against when they seek the support they need.

Carolyn gets the balance of humour and sensitivity just right as she shares her and Richard’s love story alongside a disease which ultimately took her husband away from her. More importantly, Carolyn provides the reader with practical tips on supporting carers of those with Alzheimer’s. Carers are the people who are often overlooked and Carolyn has now given them a voice. I can see this book assisting doctors with newly diagnosed patients as well as policy makers who need to make changes to the system to help patients and their carers in a more meaningful way. A wonderful, insightful book.”
