Narrado por: Bill Fike

A diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or dementia is devastating. Not only is it devastating for the person who has the disease, it is also devastating for the caregiver. Caregivers carry emotional, financial, and legal burdens.

The Alzheimer's Roadmap series was designed by a caregiver for caregivers. Each book provides checklists on a given topic to help caregivers know what they need to do as they travel through their difficult journey.

Checklists include:

• How to to talk to your loved one about legal documents
• Responsibilities of a power of attorney
• Responsibilities of a health care agent
• Possible stipulations of living wills
• List of considerations when writing a will and creating a trust

Very Helpful Book

My dear Mother had Dementia and this brought my Caregiver and I a lot closer on how to deal with Mom's problems. It is a good guide.

Incredibly Helpful

Just before hearing about this book, I attended a 2-hour seminar where much of what's covered in this book was presented. However, when I reviewed my notes a couple of days later I realized that I was in way over my head. But, through this boo, I understand everything.

Awesome Audiobook

A very insightful book on the legal aspects of eldercare. I'd definitely recommend it. It's a good audiobook for anyone, but particularly useful for everyone.

A Good Deal

This one explains in language that most everyone can understand. When you're dealing with a horrible disease such as Alzheimer's and Dementia, the easier the language and explanations the better you will be.

Five Stars

This being a tough subject, The authors taught me more in these pages than hours and hours of reading elsewhere. It is a super book.

I Appreiciate It

I appreciated that the sections are clearly labeled and it's easy to jump in midway through the book. A great reference source.

Very Informative

Very informative. I'm using it to get me acquainted with working with those with dementia. It is a great blessing for those.

Excellent Book

This audiobook allowed me to revisit and study the basics until I felt confident to move forward. When roles reverse and our parents need us, this book is a great starting point.

Not much info. Basic.

I was hoping to find a discussion of how to get someone to talk about Advanced Directives.
