Rating: Summary: Excellent Resource! Review: A most helpful book, filled with wisdom, insight, pratical advice, places to turn for concrete help. So glad I stumbled upon it and now telling all my friends who are going through it to read this. I just did not want to be my mother's mother, no, not going to go there, ran away from it for years, until I finally had to face it, and now that I have accepted it and learned what to do becuase of this book, I am so furious at myself for running away for so long. With knowledge comes coping skills, and this book will give you that and more. The other great book that will help you cope is "Elder Rage".
Rating: Summary: Great advice from a great doctor Review: My mother is old. Like, really really old. I mean, I'm old but come ON! Point is, she's senile and no fun, really. So when I found Dr. S.'s book, I was elated. He had all sorts of advice like how to hide pills in her food and what kind of entertainment the elderly like (bright colors, soft music, long stories). Sooner or later you're gonna get old too, so it's a good thing we've got enormous geniuses like the blessed Dr. Scileppi around to help us out. His wife must be very lucky-- she'll have a great caretaker when she reaches old age.
