Coping with my mother's Alzheimer's - a personal story
The International Family Offices Journal
Vol. 5 - Iss. 4 pp. 37–48
Jun 2021
A very special and very personal piece by Darlene Orlov detailing how she supported her mother from the onset of Alzheimer's and its progression to the final chapter. Her account, in "Coping with my mother's Alzheimer's - a personal story", reads like an intimate detailed diary. She said she hoped that sharing so much of what she learned - from stages of care, finding help, evaluating options, including all the related costs - might help others who are or will be faced with a similar situation. She lists many of the resources she found helpful. It is hard not to be touched by the care and love that shine through.
