“As devastating as this is for the patients, eventually they are unaware of the situation. The caregiver never gets that break. They are living with this loss on a daily basis, saying goodbye a little more every day, having to cover for their loved one a little more every day.” — Douglas Scharre, MD, director of the division of cognitive neurology at Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and author of Long-term Management of DementiaI'll start by saying, I never read this man's book.
This is one of the most shameful hurtful quotes I have ever read in regards to a person living with Alzheimer's, and Alzheimer's caregivers.
