LONGWOOD, FL-LONGWOOD, FL--Many people are at a loss for what to do when their loved ones experience changes in their elderly years, particularly when dementia sets in. That is why Xulon Press author Ronald Irvine penned The Golden Years Become the Twilight Zone ($12.99, paperback, 1-594670-02-1; $20.99, hardcover, 1-591606-18-7), a book which provides readers with help in deciding what to do and gives them specific information about how to care for their loved ones. Patterned after the author's own experiences in caring for aging family members and friends, this book will carry readers through the difficult times.
Says Irvine, "The book is a tool people can use in helping them in a needy time. It shares what questions should be asked, where to seek help, and what you need to take care of your elders. It is full of helpful hints that will carry you through the hard times. The population is aging and this book fits the needs of the times."
The author and his wife have more than six and a half years of experience in running an adult family home in addition to taking care of their own loved ones. They both took 180 hours of state training, specializing in the care of the elderly in dementia. As a result of their specialization, they have both been able to help many families in churches for the past 30 years. The Golden Years Become the Twilight Zone is a summation of what they have learned along the way, and readers will find it an invaluable resource when facing the reality of caring for their loved ones.
Ronald Irvine and his wife currently reside in Oakville, Washington.
