Résumé

Ease your stress and lighten the load of caregiving with this guide that equips you with the tools and confidence to provide exceptional care while preserving your loved one's financial and legal security. Imagine it's the end of a long day:  you've just settled your loved one into bed, a task that grows more heart-wrenching as dementia slowly dims the light in their eyes. The silence of the night echoes the thoughts you often whisper to yourself-how much longer can you juggle the costs that keep adding up?The pile of bills seems to stare back at you, each one a story of care, of sacrifice, of love.
Then there's the legal side-documents that might as well be riddles, and the daunting system that feels indifferent to your struggles. It's a story shared by so many who walk the caregiving path - a path where according to the Alzheimer's Association, families like yours spend over $5, 000 a year on dementia care out of pocket. But take heart. This book is a hand in the dark, a friend who gets it, who knows that behind every struggle is a moment spent with your loved one that you wouldn't trade for the world.

Biographie de L.E. Summers

L. E. Summers is the author of Compassionate Care: Navigating Dementia Together. Their work, written primarily for caregivers, is focused on caring for loved ones through their old age, with a particular focus on dementia. They're passionate about readers maintaining their own health and quality of life as they care for their loved ones, and provide practical solutions to help them do this. Now retired, the former I.
T. professional began their own caregiving journey when their father passed away. Summers' 85-year-old mother had been suffering from dementia for seven years and needed consistent care. They retired from their role and focused on learning about the disease and taking care of her, which they continued to do for the remainder of her life. Their experience and learning changed their trajectory, and they became passionate about sharing their knowledge and experience with others in order to make a difference to more people.
This launched Summers into a whole new level of research. They realized that the experience of caring for their mother was unique, as is the case for many caregivers, and they widened their research to help more people, accommodating the vast array of experiences encompassed by caregivers. Summers has two grown children, of whom they are extremely proud. Now able to enjoy the freedom of their retirement, they're looking forward to traveling and spending more time writing.
They're passionate about music and loves researching music history - as well as Native American archeology, with which they're fascinated.
