Watching your parents get old is weird. And hard. And sometimes hilarious--if you don't cry first. This book is about that uncomfortable stage where your folks stop being invincible and start falling apart--physically, emotionally, and sometimes spectacularly. It's about guilt-trips, medical emergencies, awkward silences, and the strange tenderness that creeps in when you least expect it. Santiago Schlesinger doesn't offer advice--he offers stories. Stories that are raw, funny, painfully familiar, and brutally honest. Because dealing with your parents' aging isn't a straight path--it's a messy mix of love, resentment, helplessness, and the occasional urge to scream into a pillow. If you've ever felt stuck between being a kid and suddenly having to act like the adult, this book is for you.
