Staying Afloat in a Sea of Forgetfulness by Gary Joseph Leblanc
When my father was first diagnosed with Alzheimer's, I read everything I could get my hands on about the disease. Right off the bat I could tell if it was written by a physician, pharmaceutical company or even a nursing home. When caregivers are looking for help, the last thing they need is medical text so complex they already forgot what they read by the time it's laid back down. This is what got me started on writing about common sense caregiving, which turned into a weekly column and now into this book. My goal is to make this book as caregiver friendly as possible. Sharing my triumphs and hardships from my plus three-thousand day campaign in dealing with the disease of Alzheimer's and the world of memory-impairment.
Gary Joseph LeBlanc is the author of, Staying Afloat in a Sea of Forgetfulness and co-author of While I Still Can. Also, a weekly columnist of Common Sense Caregiving published in the Tampa Tribune and Hernando Today and many other health publications. His writings and speaking events utilize his 3,000 plus days and nights of personal caregiving experience to help other Alzheimer's and dementia caregivers cope with the everyday challenges and emotional struggles of caring for the memory-impaired.
