What Works When Memory Stops Working: Charting A Course - Paperback

by Karin Ericson (Author)

Karin Ericson brings personal stories of her experience of caring for her mother through her journey with Alzheimer's Disease. What Works When Memory Stops Working is combination memoir and self-help, weaving together personal stories from Ericson's childhood, with techniques that helped her mother and family enjoy life despite the disease. Forced dancing lessons and scenes from Ericson's eighth-grade production of "HMS Pinafore" form the basis of stories that are instructive, comical, and poignant and ones that will help others affected by this challenging disease.
