A compassionate and holistic guide to preventing, preparing and coping with dementia – from a passionate geriatrician and internal medicine physician, Dr Kate Gregorevic.
How do I know if I have dementia, and how will I live with it if I do? Can people with dementia consent to sex? Can they choose euthanasia for their future selves? And can we prevent or push back its onset?
Chances are, you know someone with dementia, but how well do you really understand the condition? Dementia is a complex interplay of biological, social and psychological factors, and understanding it means understanding more about society and ourselves.
Approaching the topic through 20 insightful questions, Dr Kate Gregorevic explains the physical state of dementia, how to relate the diagnosis to real life, what questions to ask your doctor, strategies for preventing the condition and how we can make our homes and society better for people with dementia.
While this book tackles some uncomfortable questions, its purpose is to help – to prevent, to prepare, to cope and to understand and provide you with strategies for moving forward.
