First off I want to say thank you #NetGalley #EllenPoberRittberg #WhyisGrandmaNakedCaringforYourAgingParent and the publisher
This book was a great read to me it really helps you understand what to expect when your parents decline. I sympathize with the author because I had to watch my grandfather pass away before my eyes and help care for him in his remaining weeks. So alot of what she says in this books speaks volumes.
I also fine it very helpful now because my grandmother who is now 90 is going through some of the things her mother went through. So i found this book very helpful and uplifting because it shows there is a light at the end and it doesn't have to be all sad and dark. You need to make the most of the time you have.
I found how she dealt with with her mother actually very amazing and actually quite strong of her. Most people would havenjust stuck them in a home and left it at that or left them in a hospital to decline fast.
I love how she put her life on hold to care for her mother and no matter how stressful or difficult it may have been she stuck through the years till the end. This is what true love and dedication is. Your parents deserve this for all they give and do for us it to me is the least we can do for them.
So for this is a great story pf how to deal with coming to terms with the decline of a loved one and that it wilp be ok. Stay strong and enjoy what time you have with them because it is so limited.
I truly understand this because I myself have lost so much family due to cancer and tragedy that I wish I had that opportunity to have had the time to spend with them like she had.
So I definitely recommend this book it teaches you how to cope and how to make light of a trying tike. But it also teaches you to be thankful that you still have this time.
Definitely give this book a read and really think about what she is saying and feel the emtion.
Thank you so much again for this book. It really was so great to read.
