The daily readings in When Someone You Love Has Alzheimers offers a courageous view of the day to day life of caregivers and their charges. I was left with a wondering sense of admiration for the people who faced with all the difficult and bizarre behaviors continue to love and smile. My Mothers journey down this path was both frustrating and demanding. I delighted in the moments she recognized me. I wish I had had Cecil Murphys book during her journey.

Cecil Murphey's "When Someone You Love Has Alzheimer's" is exactly what it claims to be -- a source of daily encouragement. It offers honest and open feelings along with a sense of companionship by recognizing that we are not alone in having those feelings. It gives Scriptures to remind us of God's presence and provision, and a short prayer to focus our attention on the One who can provide all we need -- whatever that may be for the day or situation. Ideas and adjustments for coping are given that offer hope...I highly recommend this devotional book for anyone who is on the journey of caring for someone with Alzheimer's or related diseases. It would be a wonderful gift of encouragement.
