Aging, for old churches, can enhance the sense of spirituality we experience when we see and enter them.  For people, however, age may bring a loss of function and for some, the deterioration of mind we call dementia.  As the "Baby-Boomers" move into their older years, we will see an increase in the numbers of older adults with dementia because of the population bulge associated with this group.  Dr. Nelson's book, Day by Day can help caregivers better understand what is happening to the person they are caring for, and how to better cope with the changes and problems associated with dementia.
