Alzheimers, Dementia and the Healing Power of Music by Cheryl Hodge

This breakthrough method in temporarily restoring brain connections has been sweeping the planet. Music has had a proven and undeniably swift effect on improving the health of most patients afflicted with a dementia-related disease. Whether the patient can sing well or not is a moot point.... when any musical memory comes up, new neural pathways are created in the brain. Though this is, admittedly, perhaps a temporary fix for these diseases, it can created new quality time; both for the patient, and the time shared with loved ones and/or care givers. This book is also a suggested source for caregivers, themselves.
