Learning to Speak Alzheimer’s by Joanne Koenig Coste (2004)

by - Julie Fleming


Learning to Speak Alzheimer’s does exactly as its title suggests: it will teach you how to speak with your parent using language and other communication techniques that people with Alzheimer’s can more readily understand. The key point: do not try to correct or re-orient your parent with Alzheimer’s Disease, but enter their world instead. The sooner you can absorb this lesson, the less difficult your life will be.
