Navigating the Emotional Terrain of Our Elders

A friend recommended this book to me when my 80+ year-old father's health was in decline and I was torn between living my own life and wanting to drop everything and care for him. Mary Pipher, a distinguished counseling psychologist, treats the subject of aging parents so tenderly and insightfully that I drew tremendous comfort from reading the book. She helped me understand the minddset of a different generation and cope more constructively with challenges my father and brothers and I faced in meeting his needs. Highly recommended.
