Rating: 5 stars
Summary: When parents need us
Review: A good story about a valiant family taking the best possible care of an aging parent, the problems that arose, the decisions that had to be made, and the conflicts that come up when your parent becomes your child.As America turns gray, this is an event that will happen to most of the baby boomers.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Excellent and Timely Book
Review: Although this is not an answer book for those who choose to be primary caregivers for their parents the story is filled with practical helps for the multitude of issues that can be confronted. It is a touching and encouraging story. I wish it had been written before I found myself in a similar situation in caring for an aunt.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 STAR REVIEW
Review: If you would like information on becoming a caregiver you will read about the practical, physical and emotional aspects of what it is like to care for an elderly loved one.

This excellent book offers a compassionate view of a caregiver's role, feelings and experiences. Also, examines the duties and issues that must be faced with each phase of an illness.

Whether you are about to become a caregiver or are currently in that situation, as myself, or may have already experienced what a caregiver is all about, you will find this book helpful.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This subject affects us all
Review: This book touches on an issue important to everyone, as we face a large section of the population entering into this phase of life. To read this book is to step into the day-to-day experience of two brave and caring women as they care for their aged father. What they face over the span of a few months are a taste of the problems, surprises and trials that we will all have to go through. As I read this book, I realized that though I'm only in my twenties I too have to look at reality and think about my grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, et cetera. I would highly recommend reading this book as a way to introduce yourself to the issue as well.
