Dr. Sabina Brennan's book, Still Me, addresses the realities faced by caregivers of individuals with dementia, discussing both the challenges and joys of caregiving. The title reflects the dual perspective of both the person living with dementia and the caregiver. Dr. Brennan brings her insights from her professional background as a neuroscientist and her personal experiences caring for her mother, showcasing the importance of maintaining a life outside of caregiving responsibilities. The book emphasizes the entitlement of caregivers to their own lives and well-being.
I called the book Still Me because it's not just from the perspective of the person with dementia; I mean it from the perspective of the carer too. You are not just a carer, you are entitled to a life outside that.
Dr. Sabina Brennan's new book speaks to the realities experienced by those caring for loved ones with dementia - both the challenges and the joys.
This book is written from the perspective of Dr. Brennan as a doctor and as the daughter of a parent with dementia, whom she cared for and supported.
The book provides insights based on both her personal experiences and her professional background in understanding dementia.
