{"product_id":"dementia-in-the-raw-lisa-berlanga-9798996009718","title":"Dementia In The Raw","description":"Dementia wasn't the hardest part.Living through it is.When Lisa's mother began her descent into dementia, life didn't gently change course - it detonated. Suddenly, every day became a battlefield of confusion, exhaustion, guilt, anger, survival mode, and impossible decisions. And while every book she found promised \"P\" (positivity),\" \"compassion,\" and \"reward,\" nobody seemed willing to say what caregiving actually felt like in the trenches.\u003cstrong\u003eSo she will.\u003c\/strong\u003ePart memoir, part survival guide, and fully uncensored, this book takes readers through the emotional and practical realities of dementia caregiving - from heartbreak, fear, burnout, and feeling completely lost, to eventually finding strength, clarity, peace, and her \u003cstrong\u003eGOLD solutions\u003c\/strong\u003e that actually helped.And although she tells it through her self-described \u003cstrong\u003e\"four stages\"\u003c\/strong\u003e of caregiving, this isn't a polished clinical handbook. It feels more like a visit to her home as you sit across from her at the kitchen table or on a couch. -Funny, heartbreaking, chaotic, explicit, and deeply human, this book is for the caregivers who are overwhelmed, exhausted, emotionally fried, and desperate for someone to finally tell it to them straight or even provide some much-deserved validation.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lisa Berlanga\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798996009718\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shop LB Market LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/22\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.72d","brand":"Lisa Berlanga","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49174420750591,"sku":"9798996009718","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9feec7d2-1c91-410e-b610-6eb2fa4453b7.jpg?v=1788959667","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dementia-in-the-raw-lisa-berlanga-9798996009718","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
