A warm, practical guided journal for those caring for a loved one with early-stage dementia.
The early stage of dementia is often the loneliest-not because no one is around, but because no one else can see what you see. Friends say "They seem fine!" while you're quietly tracking the repeated questions, the misplaced bills, the effort behind what used to be effortless.
This book is your companion for the in-between. Not a medical textbook, but a guided journal designed for the season when your person is still very much here-still reaching for your hand, still humming old songs-but something is quietly, unmistakably changing.
Inside you'll find:
- Understanding-What early-stage actually looks like, what changes to expect, and why this stage is harder than most people realize
- Connection strategies-How to communicate, when to let go of correction, and what still reaches them (music, touch, sensory anchors)
- Practical tools-Daily tracking templates, doctor visit prep sheets, and a guide to building your support team before you need it
- Memory preservation prompts-Guided pages for capturing stories, childhood memories, and life's texture together while you still can
- Caregiver self-care-Honest guidance on anticipatory grief, guilt, sustainable caregiving, and knowing when you're running on empty
With generous writing spaces on nearly half the pages, While You're Still You is designed to be used-written in, dog-eared, carried to appointments, and returned to on hard days.
Ideal for: Caregiver support groups, newly diagnosed families, social workers, and anyone walking this road who needs a hand to hold.
"You can be right, or you can be close. In this season, you will rarely get to be both."
