How Can You Tell If It's Dementia?

Author and Dementia Care expert, Tracey Maxfield, RN, called the show to answer the question MANY families have about an aging loved one:  Do They Have Dementia? Losing your car keys doesn't mean you have dementia (I AM SO GLAD FOR THAT!!!), but the ability to manage money, and other higher brain activities may indicate a problem.  Tracey brings her 35 years of experience to bear on this tough issue.  The author of the soon to be released book ESCAPING THE RABBIT HOLE, offers a wealth of guidance for families struggling with a loved one with dementia.  Email Tracey infirmier @ Outlook.com  About Peter Rosenberger A thirty-year caregiver for his wife, Gracie, who lives with severe disabilities, Peter Rosenberger understands the journey of a caregiver as few do.  His experience led to him to author four books including Hope for the Caregiver, and 7 Caregiver Landmines and How You Can Avoid Them.   Peter Rosenberger's radio show for family caregivers airs each Sunday at 3PM CDT on Newsradio 1510 WLAC.  In addition, the show is also syndicated through the Truth Network.
