What happens when a younger person gets dementia and becomes filled with peace? Finding the Light is a poignant memoir about a mother's journey caring for her son with a terminal form of early-onset dementia, Frontotemporal Degeneration, or FTD. From the overwhelming tasks that must be done to ultimately sharing the meaningful insights that can be gained in this experience, you can't come away without being deeply moved. Claytor shares ways to lessen the toll of caregiving with stress-reducing methods and options for self-care, financial tips, and suggestions for good estate planning. But most importantly, her message is about developing a way to instill a sense of well-being in dementia sufferers and their caregivers. When Kasey Claytor found out that her 49-year-old son had Frontotemporal Degeneration, her world came crashing down... Finally grappling with this situation head-on, she set out to learn everything she could about this devastating condition and create an environment around her son that would hopefully give him a sense of well-being despite the odds. From the introduction: "...if you just look at the facts, the hard reality of this journey, you see a sad story. Delving deeper, finding the mystical or spiritual side of it, can offer hope, where the person with dementia finds happiness, even a sense of well-being, and has gratitude for simply being. Those around them can learn how to create the conditions that make this more likely."
