Have you found helpful books/resources to assist caregivers?
A book by a PD caregiver’s wife has been described to me as very depressing. I am wondering what may be out there to offer something more uplifting with, of course, realism as well.
If anyone knows of such a resource, please pass it on. I am trying to assess/evaluate things that can help caregivers on topics such as:
the silver lining amidst the clouds,
how to be tolerant,
how to be less fearful,
intimacy-is it gone?
finding home care
What to do when your PWP can’t speak loudly anymore?
etc.Hopefully, you understand. I am just looking into this so our hive mind may lead me/us to things that you have discovered.

One book that will help everyone dealing with any type of illness, not just Parkinson’s, is “The Wounded Storyteller”. 8 years diagnosed, it helped me feel better about my acceptance/rationalization. One more: Parkinson’s Diva, a woman’s POV, written by a woman, a neurologist who then was diagnosed with PD,. Excellent.

I’m curious about the book that was by a PD caregiver wife since I’m also in this same position. What was the name of that book?
