This is a resource book containing many references aimed at helping the reader overcome their challenges, maintain their independence and have happy, fulfilling lives.

Recensioner i media

“Essential reading for all caregivers. As a University professor of Kinesiology for 26 years and specializing in physical activities for persons with disabilities, I found this book extremely helpful for anyone dealing with the practical and financial aspects of caregiving. Different stages throughout life are considered including adjusting and adapting to the changes psychological and physical which will occur. Positive, upbeat information is easy to understand not just for medical professionals.”—Lorraine E. Bloomquist, Ed.D. FACSM Prof. Dept. Kinesiology, URI, (ret.)
