Summary: Great reference for the "Sandwich Generation"
Review: This is a great reference book to check causes for various ailments we oldsters experience. I recently had a serious bacterial infection. I checked Dr. Connally's book and found that the drug I had been prescribed was correct but the duration of the treatment was too short. I checked with my doctor and he agreed to extend treatment. I feel great now. Thanks, Dr. Connally!

Summary: Great reference for the "Sandwich Generation"
Review: Those of us who have kids at home and aging parents understand the stress of being a member of the "Sandwich Generation." I have found this book to be very helpful in understanding what to anticipate regarding my parents, how to help them stay healthy, and how to evaluate the seriousness of their health issues. This should be on every baby boomer's bookshelf.
