A couple of years ago I came across a Guideposts magazine that I had misplaced in a stack of books and magazines. In it was an article called "Grace, Gratitude, and Faith." The article told of Jeff Bjorck's walk of faith, as he cared for his mother with Alzheimer's disease. In this article Jeff lists four tips for caring for a loved one with Alzheimers. Below is the link to that article online. The only difference is that it has a different title than the print edition. I think you will find it to be a wonderful source of encouragement, if you are caring for a loved one. Just click on the link below:

Jeff also authored a book called, Twilight Meditations. It features some of his mother's thoughts about God, as she progressed through Alzheimer's. I wrote about his book in a blog post that I authored in August of 2017. In that same article I also reviewed a book by Brian De Jong called Honoring Our Elderly. Finally, I reviewed my own book, Dear Caregiver Reflections for Family Caregivers. You can find that post by clicking on the below link:
