All the Dancing Birds

BOOK OF THE WEEK:

This book is unique in that it is written (beautifully and lyrically) from the viewpoint of Lillie Claire, a woman diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. As we watch her condition worsen, we see it all from her perspective. She is aware of what is happening and shares everything in her words. This is a poignant, heart-warming, and inspiring story. Laugh, cry and become attached to Lillie Claire and her family, wrapped up in their struggles and in the moments of joy and clarity that punctuate Alzheimer’s. A source of energy and inspiration, All the Dancing Birds has become a popular, 5-star award-winner.

Caring for dementias such as Alzheimer's among family and friends, Peter committed to help preserve the dignity of people affected by Alzheimer's. AlzheimersWeekly.com is the fruit of that commitment.

This site was inspired by my Mom’s autoimmune dementia.

It is a place where we separate out the wheat from the chafe, the important articles & videos from each week’s river of news. Google gets a new post on Alzheimer’s or dementia every 7 minutes. That can overwhelm anyone looking for help. This site filters out, focuses on and offers only the best information. it has helped hundreds of thousands of people since it debuted in 2007. Thanks to our many subscribers for your supportive feedback.

The site is dedicated to all those preserving the dignity of the community of people living with dementia.
