Alzheimer's Disease - The Journey Within1995, color, 20 minutes, DVD or VHS Presented on PBS, this video takes the viewer through a daughter's deepest feelings, written in a journal, as she watches her mother go through the beginning stages of Alzheimer's disease, and shows how those feelings eventually lead her to experience a profound change within herself. Alzheimer's Disease - The Journey Within is unique in many ways: in its rich symbolism and beautiful imagery . . . in its positive message that Alzheimer's disease is not an end, but a beginning . . . and in its primary intended audience: family members in the beginning stages of care giving, who need to know, perhaps more than any other group, that they are not alone. "Ehis video presents a powerful journey of discovery, incorporating the common pattern of denial, fear, shame, confusion and anger." Library Journal, Vol. 122, November, 1997 "En excellent videotape, both substantively and estheticallyE The Gerontologist, a publication of The Gerontological Society of America, October 1996 issue, Volume 36, No. 5, page 719 "An extraordinary tape that offers rare insight into a family member's experience with Alzheimer's disease."
