First person stories of patients who recovered from Alzheimer's
Disease--and how they did it.
It has been said that everyone knows a cancer survivor, but no one has
met an Alzheimer's survivor - until now. In his first two books, Dr.
Dale Bredesen outlined the revolutionary treatments that are changing
what had previously seemed like the inevitable outcome of cognitive
decline and dementia. And in these moving narratives, you can hear
directly from the first survivors of Alzheimer's themselves--their own
amazing stories of hope told in their own words.
These first person accounts honestly detail the fear, struggle, and
ultimate victory of each patient's journey. They vividly describe what
it is like to have Alzheimer's. They also drill down on how each of
these patients made the program work for them--the challenges, the
workarounds, the encouraging results that are so motivating. Dr.
Bredesen includes commentary following each story to help point readers
to the tips and tricks that might help them as well.
Dr. Bredesen's patients have not just survived; they have thrived to
rediscover fulfilling lives, rewarding relationships, and meaningful
work. This book will give unprecedented hope to patients and their
families.
