Our Book Club Discussion is TOMORROW! March 25th at 2 pm EDT

Hello ,

Thank you for your interest in our Aging & Amazing Book Club. Our next book club discussion is TOMORROW, March 25th at 2 pm EDT via Zoom as we discuss "The Race of Dementia" with Debra Tann, Ed.D.

The title of the book serves as a double entendre. First, there is a race for a cure. Second, there is evidence that suggests Blacks and Latinos will make up nearly 40% of the 8.4 million American families affected by Alzheimer’s. Hence, it is literally The Race of Dementia.

Debra says, "My book emphasizes the question, who cares for the caregiver? What is more, the book addresses the age-old conundrum of race as it relates to the health care system. Disparities such as poverty, unequal access to health care, lack of education, and stigmas are underlying factors of health inequities."

Readers say:

"This is a great book that covers the many important topics of dementia. It provides colorful stories of those touched by dementia. It is written with hope and optimism knowing it will take all of us to raise awareness of dementia- together we are better. It is also a great resource for nursing students and provides interactive scenarios for great discussion."

"This read has opened my eyes to the many struggles associated with dementia (and related diseases), and need for caregivers to take time to care for themselves. Before The Race of Dementia, I never placed much thought on how important it was for me (a caregiver) to give myself permission to take a break... take a breath... take a minute, and not feel guilty about doing so."
