Q&A with the Experts on Dementia Support

How can caregivers cope with the tragic loss of a parent to Alzheimer's?
I found that reading caregiving statistics helped me feel less alone, especially the one about: “More than 50 million Americans are taking care of a family member or friend--and 20 million of them are Baby Boomers caring for an aging parent.”
My mother with dementia is "my shadow." How do I get her to stop following me all day long?
If your parent is following you around the house all day, the dementia could be progressing, or they need more social interaction with other people.
Both my parents have dementia. Should I quit my job to care for them?
It is very difficult to care for one parent with dementia, but to have two parents with dementia and to be taking on this task alone is very overwhelming and a daunting task.
