What more appropriate item for an Alzheimer's Association, Northwest Ohio Chapter auction than a just-published book from a health professional in Northwest Ohio designed to help families dealing with communications issues arising from Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.

"I Was Thinking: Unlocking the Door to Successful Conversations with Loved Ones with Cognitive Loss" was written by Diana Waugh, RN, BSN of Waterville, Ohio. It provides, in clear language, practical suggestions for improving communications with people dealing with cognitive loss. It also serves as a workbook, guiding the user to implement these techniques.

This book, just published this year, may become a classic in the field, and this is your chance to own a copy personally autographed by the author.
