Book Description
For most of us it is not the "ifs" but the "whens": when I notice the first signs; when we mourn the role reversal; when my children need me too; or when I don't know how to pray. Those are just a few of the fifty-two reflections on the changes, challenges, and blessings of loving your parent as they grow older. Their lives -- and yours -- begin to change. Knowing that you are not alone, that others have been where you are, is encouraging and uplifting. This is not a how-to, but a me-too, as you see yourself and your own situation lived out in the stories of others.

Author: Nan McAdam

Baby boomers are aging and retiring, creating the largest group of seniors the world has ever known. This trend has adult children looking at uncertain futures of meeting their retirement goals while providing care for their aging parents. Old age doesn't come with a handbook on how to handle the speed bumps of elder care, leaving us with difficult questions like; Is it time for our elder to hang up the car keys? How to deal with hospital stays and doctor's appointments? What happens if they get dementia? Should they live with us, or a care facility? How to deal with caregiver stress and burnout? 63% of caregivers die before the care receiver from depression related illness like suicide, strokes, and heart disease. This is a “must read” for anyone who chooses to not only survive care giving, but have it enrich their lives.
