Among the topics addressed in the book are ways to balance caring for parents while raising children, stress-relief strategies, discovering the blessings hidden in dementia, and the power of long-distance caregiving. The book also offers a helpful resource section with an alphabetical listing of companies whose services may be useful to caregivers.

Praise for The Caregiver's Advocate, Vol 2.

"As both a neurologist who provides care for persons diagnosed with dementia, and a son who cared for two parents living with Alzheimer's, I have become very familiar with available caregiver resources, gleaning knowledge for personal use and to recommend to others. In The Caregiver's Advocate Vol. 2, Debbie DeMoss Compton and her team of co-authors have succeeded in creating one of the best caregiver guides currently available." — Daniel C. Potts, M.D., neurologist with the Tuscaloosa VA Medical Center, and co-author, A Pocket Guide for the Alzheimer's Caregiver

"The Caregiver's Advocate Vol. 2 is full of stories and strategies that will help every caregiver. The authors of this book deliver compassion, knowledge, and sage advice to help the growing number of families who struggle with caregiving responsibilities." — Aaron Blight, Ed.D., founder of Caregiving Kinetics, and assistant professor of public health at Shenandoah University

"The Caregiver's Advocate Vol. 2 is an important resource that underscores letting caregivers know they are not alone. The helpful information shared through storytelling from all walks of caregiving life is quite universal and will resonate with all caregivers, helping to give solace and hope." — Mary Lou Falcone, author, I Didn't See It Coming: Scenes of Love, Loss, and Lewy Body Dementia
