Description
This book has the same fact packed, well researched, and easy to read style as the Whitworth's award-winning A Caregiver's Guide to Lewy Body Dementia. Illustrated by personal stories and supported with many pages of resources, it is an excellent reference for anyone dealing with symptoms related to Parkinson's disease and early Lewy body dementia.Until recently, Parkinson's cognitive issues have been overlooked by many in the medical community. Today, neurologists and researchers are beginning to recognize that these issues are as important as mobility and often more distressing. The idea that PD and LBD are aspects of the same disorder can be cause for concern to anyone starting on that journey. This book answers that concern with the power of knowledge and the strength of hope. It describes the symptoms that warn of impending LBD and suggests alternative therapies that focus on a healthy lifestyle, stress management, better communication, a positive outlook and limiting drugs. It helps people extend awareness and maintain a better quality of life by regaining some control over a life that has begun to feel out of control. - from Amzon
