Maybe you know of this disease by another name: Parkinson Disease Dementia, Dementia with Lewy Bodies, or Diffuse Lewy Body Dementia. If you are confused about the strange mannerisms with LBD, I was as well. We were told that my husband had Parkinson’s, but no! It was definitely LBD. I was his caregiver/physical therapist for five years and have worked with several families since. I have a fairly good handle on the disease.
This webpage will provide many Doors for the seeker who wants more information. I researched all symptoms, and put our experience into a book: Living with Lewy Body Dementia, One Caregiver’s Personal, In-Depth Experience. You will find more information under the Door marked Books. All pages have a link for you to order the book easily.
I have hundreds of suggestions for all stages and phases of the disease. It is factual, but offers hope and optimism for ways to add as much quality to your lives as possible. Should your spouse pass from LBD as my beloved husband did, I have continued my adventure attitude by writing a book about widowhood: The Wonderful World of Widowhood…Except When It Isn’t. More information is available under the Door marked Book.
