'"Overthinking in Relationships and Survivors of Alzheimer's: A Caregiver's Guide to Mental Health and Aging” author Joseph Mendoza concluded the book’s introduction in a profound way for those who experience caregiving and those who have to cope with this disease.

The author said, “This book is my heart laid bare, a compilation of the lessons that life with Alzheimer’s has taught me- lessons of love, patience, and the strength we all carry. An excellent overview of the issues and problems that must be faced by those who have relationships with those who need caregivers and understanding.

The book is a precious look through a window at what caregivers face. Finding a clear view back out through the window is a challenge.
