by Daniel C. Potts (Author), Emily Broman Phelps (Foreword by)

People diagnosed with dementia are still living and deserve the support needed to help them live as well as possible through the trauma and losses they face. To this end, the expressive arts play an important role. Enlightened by his father's artistic gift revealed in the throes of dementia, neurologist Daniel C. Potts tells how his father's creativity inspired the development of the Bringing Art to Life program, sharing stories of its participants, both persons living with dementia and their student partners, and of the power of art and authentic relationships to foster spiritual growth and make meaning even amidst life's greatest challenges.
