A Word from Kimberly

Putting words to paper is my happy place. I have been writing most of my life, so it was only natural to turn to my keyboard when processing my mom’s Lewy body dementia diagnosis.

The dementia journey is a painful one for those living with the disease as well as their loved ones. Perhaps the only thing that can make it more tolerable is knowing you are not alone in it. This is where A Guide for Lewy Body Dementia Caregivers: Caring with Compassion was born.

I pray this book reminds you that you are not alone and that even in the darkest parts of Lewy body dementia, there is still hope.
