Could It Be Dementia?: Losing Your Mind Doesn't Mean Losing Your Soul

Could It Be Dementia?: Losing Your Mind Doesn't Mean Losing Your Soul

by Louise Morse (Author), Louise Morse (Author), Roger Hitchings (Author), Louise Morse (Author)

Synopsis

This book puts dementia into a Christian context, insisting that loss of memory or reason does not mean a person is worthless. Dementia is in the headlines on a daily basis. Much information is available but it is all factual with no spiritual content. Yet for Christians, dementia can raise questions unlike any other condition. Why does a godly old man begin to use language that has always been anathema to him? Why does a loving mother become stubborn, and suspicious? Where is God in all of this? This book offers information and reassurance gleaned from the extensive experience of Pilgrim Homes, a network of nine Christian care homes and a foundation going back to 1807.
