Nearly five million families deal with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia on a daily basis. They do this with little training, and often, only their good intentions guide them. When Reasoning No Longer Works is the training manual these family caregivers have been searching for. Authored by a gerontologist with more than 20 years of experience, this audiobook gives the listener an easy-to-understand view of what dementia does to the brain, how it is diagnosed, and most importantly, how to deal with its effects.
The book clearly explains:
- How to avoid a catastrophic reaction
- What are some specific approaches for aggressive behavior
- How to deal with disruptive behaviors
- What are ways to diminish wandering
- What to do when a wanderer is missing
- When to look for outside help
You'll also follow the story of Lou and Rose, a couple who share their lives with Alzheimer's disease. Together, they find the answers to questions caregivers and victims are sometimes afraid to ask.

My need for a resource like this has been growing. Unexplained bruises, missed bill payments (with an 820 credit score), two packages of checks from the same bank delivered days apart…you get the idea, and this book hits on all of those. The need for this book as a resource came to a head recently when my daughter, 19 and in college, called and told me Granny was lost. I immediately called my mother and spent an hour on the phone navigating her home. This was aided by being able to track her through the location services on her phone. Still, an hour!! No exaggeration. I stayed on the phone with her until she pulled into her garage. That was a good thing since she was confused about turning right or left less than a mile from her neighborhood.
This book helped me realize what’s happening with my mother and how I can help. It shed insights into what she’s thinking and doing and why. I have to reprogram my approach to her and for her.
The narrator, mature and compassionate, tells the story in a kind and empathetic tone. The layout is excellent…phases of: a fictitious couple with one experiencing symptoms followed by what is happening internally to the victims
and then recommendations to help.
If you have someone aging, even if they are not showing symptoms, READ THIS BOOK!!
MUST READ for anyone with an aging loved one.

Nice but not very helpful

Most of the book was a series of lists of does and don’ts. It is a start but a caregiver needs more detail and more explanation.
Some good information
