Description

"A compassionate guide of encyclopedic proportion," a source of information and support for family caregivers (The Washington Post).

Now completely revised and updated, this comprehensive caregiver's bible tackles all the touch subjects, from how to avoid becoming your parent's "parent," to understanding what happens to the body in old age, to getting help finding, and paying for, a nursing home.

When love is not enough -- and regrettably, it never is -- this is the essential guide.

Help for every difficult issue:

• Knowing when to intervene

• Coping with dementia

• Caring for the caregiver

• The question of driving

• Paying for long-term care

• Sharing the care with siblings

• Caregiving from a distance

• Home care vs. a nursing home

• The hospice option

"Indispensable!" -- AARP

"A must-read... [Morris] thoroughly addresses the subject... Her frank approach manages to be both compassionate and direct." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review
