excellent

This is THE book you should have once your parents either hit 75, have health problems, or you need any help caring for them or understanding how you feel about it all. A home visitng doctor handed it to me the first visit he made and it was an invaluable resouce. GET IT!

Our entire family has read this great book at least twice!

This wonderful book covers every aspect of parentcare. However, it's not so much about caring for old people, it's more about what we babyboomers are going through as we watch our parents get old and die. One member of our family read the book then passed it along to another, and so on, until all 8 of us read it, and now it's getting passed around again! Maybe we should buy another copy!
