Are you or a loved one facing the challenges of dementia? Don't lose hope. Introducing "Dementia Reimagined: Building a Life of Joy and Dignity from Beginning to End," an insightful book by leading psychiatrist and bioethicist, Tia Powell. In this transformative paperback edition, Dr. Powell takes us on a journey through the cultural and medical history of dementia and Alzheimer's disease, urging us to shift our focus from cure to care.
It's a fact that as we age, the likelihood of developing dementia increases. With 10,000 baby boomers reaching 65 every day, the statistics are staggering. By the time someone turns 85, their chances of facing dementia approach 50 percent. Despite the endless promises from pharmaceutical companies, there is still no cure in sight. But that doesn't mean all hope is lost.
Dr. Powell's goal is to change the conversation surrounding dementia. She believes in the power of care, fostering a genuine appreciation for what we can do for those living with dementia. In "Dementia Reimagined," she provides valuable insights into how we can make life meaningful and even joyful for individuals living with this condition.
Through a powerful combination of medicine and memoir, "Dementia Reimagined" illuminates the untold history of dementia. Dr. Powell explores the pivotal work of Solomon Fuller, a remarkable black doctor whose research at the turn of the twentieth century anticipated many aspects of our current understanding of dementia. The book also delves into the repercussions of the recent funding frenzy for Alzheimer's, shedding light on its impact on other forms of the disease.
By demystifying dementia, Dr. Powell enables us to see it with clearer eyes. Drawing from her own experience as a physician and caregiver, she provides valuable insights and practical advice for navigating the challenges of dementia. This book is more than a mere exploration of loss; it's a testament to the preservation of dignity and hope in the face of adversity.
