Memory Books Offer Positive Results
Alzheimer’s Disease takes away a great deal of a person’s memory 
including those accomplishments and life experiences that made the person who he or she is. A person’s sense of worth is depleted when their memory fails them. You may have read my earlier post about how to put together a memory book for an Alzheimer’s patient. Here is a new study just released for a thesis by Margaret Jeanne Trela at Ohio State University that indicates a photo memory book for an Alzheimer’s patient can help preserve that patient’s sense of self.
