An Essental Guide On How To Care For Aging Loved Ones

I love this book! I use it often as a reference. I have found it incredibly helpful in addressing the myriad issues of my aging family members.Those of us who are fortunate enough to have elders in our lives will benefit from the practical, sensitive, and expert guidance this book gives. It contains dozens of suggestions for dealing with tough topics like "taking away the keys"(to the car), or how to approach the topic of your loved one needing professional care. The book also includes lists of organizations that can help you journey through the many issues that come with aging.I have purchased this book for many of my friends, and each one has found it to be a useful and enlightening tool. I can't praise it enough. It's been a lifesaver.
