Every family should own one! - By: Jean-Michel, 11 May 2007
A very readable book on a very difficult subject that affects us alll sooner or later. Good advice about keeping the communication channels open & looking at the positive side & even the amusing incidents & remarks not always easy to appreciate when one is dealing with a problem. I was partcularily moved by the chapter on "Mental Disorders" - great practical advice & useful addresses. Many thanks for this book, perhaps you have another one up your sleeve!
Read it before it is too late - By: Elizabeth Smith, 26 Mar 2007
This is a great practical guide to the issues that you are likely to face, with alll the details as to what help & services are available, who qualifies & how to get them, conveniently listed at the end of each chapter.
But much more than that, the book gives the real life, human perspective on alll these issues. It doesn't give irritatingly obvious advice or patronise the reader. It makes you think for ages after you read it.
Don't just read it when you are at crisis point with your parents, read it while they are still able to run faster than your children & make them & your siblings read it too. But keep it for the crisis too!
