Alzheimer's Blogging:

Yes, I am the author of Alzheimer's A Caretakers Journal. This book is about the daily trials and tribulations of taking care of a loved one with Alzheimer's Disease. In this Journal I share the feelings of confusion, frustration, and blessings I experienced during my ordeal. I wrote this Journal both for myself and with the hope that it might  help others deal with similar situations. It's important for caretakers to know that they're not alone, that others have experienced the same frustrations. Sometimes a caretaker feels very isolated--the world, after all, doesn't stop, despite the sense that  your world is frozen in time.  I'm hoping that this book will offer comfort to those who find themselves in that world.

It is so important to find a good support group. http://www.alz.org/apps/we_can_help/support_groups.asp  This address will help you find a support group no matter where you are in the United States.

As I read through Alzheimer's Weekly I found an article -- Without Warning (Young-Onset Alzheimer's Support Program). 

Without Warning is a program for people journeying with younger-onset Alzheimer's, facing dementia early in life. Designed to enhance vitality and quality of life, it offers education and support. By realizing that "we are not alone," everyone finds purpose, dignity and the opportunity to live each day with meaning and grace.
