Live, Laugh, and Love with Dementia is a story of hope and how our family not only triumphed over the trials and tribulations of caring for a family member with dementia but how we grew closer to one another and to God. It was by far the most difficult yet rewarding time of our lives. I dedicate this book to caregivers everywhere, especially those caring for a family member with this horrible disease. This humorous account depicts the realities of dementia. Our family created coping mechanisms which included laughter because laughter lowers your blood pressure. It was only when Mom died that we realized that her seven year struggle with this terrible disease was meant to teach our family lessons of hope, faith, perseverance and unconditional love. I felt compelled to write this book in order to share the legal and medical information we gleaned along the way. In the end, I believe all we have is family and it is our responsibility to care for one another. Today it is believed that 1 out of 2 baby boomers living to age 85 will have dementia. A minimum of 20% of the net proceeds from this book will go toward Alzheimer's research in the hope of a cure.
