"This is a book I immediately wanted to give to a friend-and keep a copy for my bookshelf. Wise, clear, well-researched, and helpful." -Katy Butler, bestselling author of Knocking on Heaven's Door and The Art of Dying Well

When Dr. Beverly E. Thorn became a caregiver for her husband, Walt, she joined a massive army. Worldwide, unpaid dementia caregiving requires the equivalent of forty million full-time workers, and that number will only grow. But navigating dementia caregiving can feel like trying to climb a mountain in the dark-and few resources exist to support caregivers in finding their way.

In Before I Lose My Own Mind, Thorn-a psychologist, neuroscientist, and end-of-life doula-provides an honest vision of caregiving that is tender, openhearted, and genuinely useful. Filled with resources and insights on financial planning, advance care directives, clinical trials, support groups, death with dignity, grief, recovery, and more, this book is a road map for all caregivers, whether they're family or friends, spouses or children, professionals or novices.

For those coping with the grief, exhaustion, and loneliness of a challenge they never expected, help is out there. Surviving dementia caregiving is a team effort. Consider this book a part of your support crew.
