Description

When a spouse is diagnosed with Alzheimers disease, chances are the husband or wife has suspected something is not right for some time. Denial, embarrassment, the decision to tell others, and additional issuessome that feel too private to share can have a significant impact on the marriage. Spouses often look to their church for emotional, physical, and spiritual support; however, research shows that most churches are not well-equipped to minister to those caring for a spouse with Alzheimers. Sanctuary in the Midst of Alzheimers is a resource for both spouses and their churches, encouraging congregations to walk in the shoes of a spousal caregiver while providing the opportunity for spouses to find meaning and a sense of peace in their role as a caregiver.
