Happy New Year
Here it is: the end of 2009. And what a year it has been for many of you. I know that for me, the publication of my book, Connecting the Dots: Breakthroughs in Communication as Alzheimer's Advances, signifies my own personal breakthrough in realizing a dream. But writing the book itself doesn't do the trick unless you, the relatives, friends and caregivers of those with advancing Alzheimers, start to use the tools I discovered to connect with your loved ones and re-establish communication. True, it may be very different from the way you communicated before this disease, but that feeling of sharing the moment with that person is wonderful. So, in this New Year, resolve to give both you and your loved one the gift of understanding and kindness.

Hi Judith,
ReplyDeleteI haven't read your book yet, but this book is kinda interesting, especially for those individuals who have family members with Alzheimer's. I'm also thankful that you've been working out on that dream, not just for you, but for others, as well. May you continue doing what you love, sweetie!
