Description
|
|
|
|
What will you do if a loved one has a debilitating heart attack or a stroke, or a family member becomes too frail to live alone, yet is too healthy for a nursing home? Journalist Paula Span shares the stories of several families who faced these questions, each contemplating the alternatives in elder care—from assisted living to multigenerational living, home care, nursing care, and hospice care. Span discusses their emotional challenges and their practical discoveries, with the good news that some people find a situation that works for them and their loved ones, and many family members find joy in the duty of caring for an older loved one.
