I'm still frequently amazed at how much the Internet shrinks the world. An author in the United Kingdom was researching her book on dementia and Alzheimer's disease. She came across some of my work, and quoted an article I'd written a couple of years ago, for Like what you're reading?

    Thanks Carol, once again, for bringing us material that will most certainly highten our awareness, if not open our eyes.

     

    This book does sound interesting with the religious angle of particular interest to me.  We've had others discuss the connections people have to their religion and faith.  AFA Founder and CEO Eric Hall's Turn to Houses of Worship for Information about Memory Care as well as comments to Carol Bradley Bursack's Elder Suicide: How We Can Try To Prevent It are examples.  Many of our community members discuss how their faith helps them through the trying times.

     

    I hope others will post there thoughts after reading this book or the topics discussed by its author.

     

    all the best, sue (moderator)
