Discover Glass Full of Tears

One of the very interesting and informative books for caregivers, written from a wife's viewpoint, is Glass Full of Tears, Dementia Day-By-Day by June Lund Shiplett.  Here June relates the frustrations and joys of caring for her husband as he developed dementia.

Whether your family member has Alzheimer's or some other form of dementia, June's account may help you get through each day.  You'll realize you aren't alone.

I met June when we taught at a writers' workshop and then attended a book signing for our books.  Coincidentally, I was caring for my mom, who had Alzheimer's, at the time June was promoting her book and speaking to groups.
