Publisher's Summary

Help your parents live with dignity in their twilight years without sacrificing your own health and sanity.

When elderly parents can no longer care for themselves, the responsibility for their care usually falls on their adult children. This guide will help you navigate this difficult journey so that you can take care of your parents without unnecessarily disrupting your life. Filled with insights from the author’s own personal experience with caring for her aging mother, it will make your caregiving experience more manageable and more rewarding, right from the start.

Here’s just a fraction of what you will discover inside:

  • A compassionate look inside your parents’ world to help you empathize and understand what they are going through
  • How to handle embarrassing senior moments with sensitivity and grace
  • The most common conflict situations you’ll encounter with your parents and how to resolve them peacefully
  • How to slow down memory loss and declining health and help your parents remain active and independent for as long as possible
  • What to do when it all becomes too much for you—find out where to go, what to do, and who to ask for help when you need it the most

And much more.

Caregiving is never easy no matter who you’re caring for, but it’s even harder when you’re taking care of a parent. But while you can’t turn back time, you can make this time count by providing them with a caring environment and unconditional support. Your parents have spent decades doting on you and attending to your needs—now it’s your turn to do the same for them.

Make sure your parents’ needs—and your own—are met, regardless of what challenges come your way. Scroll up, and click the “buy now" button right now.

Such a great resource!

This book is like a guidebook, resource book and a reassuring friend all in one. The journey of the author and her mother is shared in a way that keeps the reader curious about their life. Along the way, the story offers real life resources and tips. The author also provides encouragement and emotional support. Anyone reading this book and living the "sandwich generation" life will appreciate those moments of advice to be kind to yourself and reassurance that you are doing the best you can. For anyone who is anticipating to be in a similar situation soon will love that this book will diminish the fear of the unknown.
The narrator is wonderful. Her voice is clear and strong yet soft and soothing. An excellent choice for this topic.
Highly recommend this thoughtful book of advice, researched guidance and resources. If you have aging parents, read this book now.
