Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. +++ Used by more than 50,000 families +++There comes a time when conversation is no longer possible. Questions become tiring, long sentences get lost along the way, and the caregiver may no longer know what to do with the hours spent together.Slowly, There Is Time is a book to read aloud when illness is well advanced. There are no questions to get wrong, no dates to remember, and no names to recall. Nothing is demanded. Only simple things happening now: fresh bread, rain on the roof, a cat in the sun, clean sheets.What the book is like: One sentence on each page, in very large print with generous white space54 everyday scenes arranged in six partsEverything is written in the present tense: the listener is never asked to rememberShort, concrete, sensory sentences about smell, touch, temperature, sound, and lightOpen the book anywhere, read for as long as feels right, and close it without needing to finishThe same chapter can be read again and again: repetition is part of the experienceThe six parts explore simple, familiar experiences: The house: the kitchen, table, bed, clean sheets, window, fire, door, chair, courtyardThe street and countryside: morning, sun, rain, wind, paths, rivers, sea, snow, lamplightThings to eat: bread, coffee, soup, ripe fruit, oranges, chocolate, stew, cakeAnimals and plants: cats, dogs, birds, hens, horses, flowers, trees, gardens, beesHands and body: water and soap, clean clothes, shoes, blankets, sun on the face, restSounds and music: bells, rain on the roof, clocks, radio, laughter, dance music, singingA short practical section for the person reading aloud explains: How to prepare the moment: light, quiet, glasses, hearing aids, and comfortable seatingWhat to do if the person becomes restless, cries, asks for someone who is absent, or does not respondWhy repeating is not a mistake and why silence after each sentence is part of the readingHow simple sensory objects can be used safely alongside the bookWritten for: Sons and daughters caring for someone at home who have run out of things to sayCare homes, day centres, memory units, and home-care servicesOccupational therapists and care staff seeking sensory material written for adults, not adapted from children's activitiesRelatives who want to be close without turning a visit into a test of memoryWritten in plain international English, without local idiom.Important notice: this book is not a treatment, therapy, or diagnostic tool, and it does not replace a health professional. Reading aloud may soothe and help people feel closer, but it does not cure or halt any illness.No remembering is required. No answer is required. Sometimes a familiar voice, a simple sentence, and time together are enough. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
