Robert J. Bublitz, Alzheimer’s author, and speaker gained extensive knowledge about Alzheimer's from his research on the disease and experience caring for his mother.

Being an only child, Bob dropped everything and accepted full responsibility for his mother’s health care. Bob was determined to make his mother’s final days as pleasant as possible. Alzheimer's--What My Mother’s Caregiving Taught Me is the result of the knowledge and experience Bob shares with others to lighten the burden they face with this disease.
