Excellent Resource

This book has been a godsend for myself and my family. My Dad was recently diagnoised with Alzheimer's. This book helped me ask intelligent questions when speaking to his doctor. It's a diesease people know so little about. It's very helpful in helping determine what type of doctor a alzheimer suffer should be seeing and the test available. I wish I'd had this book when we first suspected there maybe a problem. I'm an avid reader and have read many self help books and this has to be one of the most helpful books I have ever read.

Fantastic for an aging family

When my 73 year mother started misplacing things and forgetting stories she had recently said, I was so worried. The Alzheimer's Action Plan helped me and my family understand more about her condition. This book brought a comfort and re-assurance to my and my siblings lives. Thank you Dr. Duroswami for spending the effort to bring all this information to one place.
