No Act Of Love Is Ever Wasted (Large Type)
$15.99
There are five million people in the United States living with Alzheimer’s disease, and nearly 10 million loved ones caring for them.
Addressing the concerns of these elders and their caregivers is a matter of increasing importance. Relying on their many years of experience in this area, Thibault and Morgan offer this book to provide a fresh, hopeful model of dealing with life and death in the realm of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.
Caregivers have two basic needs:
*affirmation that caregiving is not in vain
*reassurance that the lives of those for whom they care are not being lived in vain
Care receivers need more than medical attention; they need tender care, involvement in the community, and a sense of connection with a loving God. When patient and caregiver regard this shared experience as a “mutual spiritual path,” each plays a role in deepening the spiritual life of the other.
No Act of Love Is Ever Wasted is an excellent resource for individuals caring for loved ones as well as for counselors, support group leaders, pastors and other professionals. In addition to offering practical ways to help, this book serves as a reminder that every act of love brings positive transformation to the recipient, to the giver and to the world.
