Day-to-Day Living With Dementia
A Mayo Clinic Guide for Offering Care and Support

Caring for someone with dementia can be a challenging, heartbreaking experience … but it can also be rewarding, fulfilling and meaningful.

you take that first step and chart your path toward living well, even in the face of dementia.

For over 20 years, Ms. Lunde has made it her mission to improve emotional wellbeing and quality of life for those living with dementia and their care partners.

This book gives you the research-backed strategies Ms. Lunde applies in her work every day.
