Are you a dementia family caregiver/partner? This is for you.

Kae Hammond's personal experience with her parents and their dementia was discovering how much she didn't know about the disease, what to plan for, or how to manage their lives and her own. Kae's naiveté cost her time, energy, money and pain.

If you're living with dementia in your family, Kae has well-tested techniques and proven strategies to share with you. She has a rescue plan that will take you on the road to a calmer life — the kind of life Kae's became after doing it the uninformed, hard way. Your life matters, too.

Do you know about Kae Hammond's guidebook for dementia family caregivers? It's a lifesaver!

More than 5 million Americans have Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, with diagnoses rising steadily as our population ages. According to the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, one to four family members act as caregivers for each individual with Alzheimer’s. Sadly, caregivers are at risk of developing life-altering conditions of their own while caring for a loved one. We’re here to help. Kae Hammond’s “Pathways — A Guidebook for Dementia & Alzheimer’s Family Caregivers” is a storehouse of information, tips and tools to help dementia family caregivers learn to thrive.

It’s been called everything from a lifesaver for caregivers to an “outstandingly clear and useful book that helps families care for individuals with dementia …” One reader said “I wish doctors and nurses would read this and talk to their patients in such clear language.”
