Edición en Inglés
Besides the stories in my book that show ways to help someone with Alzheimer's disease, I have included some introspective essays that share with the reader my feelings about caring for people. All in one way or another designed to put care back in caregiving.
In this book are moments I call opening a window. I might not have noticed that I opened those windows when caring for residents in a nursing home if it hadn't been for the experience of taking care of my father. Being a caregiver on a personal level gave me an insight I wouldn't have had otherwise. Caring for Dad helped me realize as a professional caregiver I was consumed with taking care of the physical needs for the residents, but people with Alzheimer's disease need more than that. They need caregivers to care enough to inspire and exercise their brains so even if it's for a brief moment, we've help to let their thoughts, trapped in the shell that has become them, escape to shine out of the windows in their brain.
