Caregivers of dementia patients are one of our greatest resources. Dementia caregivers are required to have patience when their last nerve is gone; to show strength for two, when they barely have strength for the next step; to always understand, while never being understood; and to live an increasingly lonely life while their life partner, or parent daily slips away from them. If you are a dementia caregiver you do not have to suffer on your own, organizations and educational materials are available over the phone or Internet. The following pages are meant to help you cope with your loved ones changing behavior, manage your own stress, and provide resources to help you survive the 36-hour day.
