Alzheimers' on the Rise. New Book Helps Caregivers.

On one side are millions of people suffering with Alzheimer�s.

On the other side are 50 million caregivers in the U.S. who take care of them without proper training and preparation.

In the middle is a woman on a mission.

Bonnie McGovern is a leading advocate for caregivers caring for a loved one. She�s written a book
titled Taking Care of Barbara A Journey Through Life and Alzheimer�s and 29 Insights for Caregivers. The book was inspired by a real life story Bonnie
experienced while caring for her sister 10 years.

In the book readers will learn:

* Secrets to maintaining the patient�s hygiene
* An amazing strategy on how the caregiver can stay healthy (40% of caregivers die before the person they care for)
* What are the 3 stages of Alzheimer�s
* What are the 2 most important documents caregivers
must have
* What to do when a loved one passes over
