Description

There Is Hope . . . When a patient is diagnosed with dementia, it impacts not only the patient but also those who care for them. It can be devastating to watch loved ones lose the independence, personality, and abilities that once defined them, knowing there is no cure. How should Christians respond to a diagnosis of dementia? Experienced geriatrician Dr. John Dunlop wants to transform the way we view dementia--showing us how God can be honored through such a tragedy as we respect the inherent dignity of all humans made in the image of God. Sharing stories from decades of experience with dementia patients, Dunlop provides readers, particularly caregivers, with a biblical lens through which to understand the experience and challenge of this life-altering disease. Finding Grace in the Face of Dementia will help you see God's purposes as you love and care for those with dementia.

Finding Grace in the Face of Dementia by John Dunlop.

I found the book practical, informative, compassionate and very helpful. He interspersed facts with practical illustrations from the lives of real people which kept the connection. As a Christian writer, he gave some encouraging insights into the positive and difficult impacts of dementia on Christian faith and included a prayer at the end of each chapter. The book gives helpful information for those wondering if they have normal memory loss and information about dementia and the challenges faced by patients and carers. He gives good advice about how to care for all concerned and he talks about the church's role in this. I have recommended the book to several people.
