Product Description The Aging Experience is the phase of our life that tends to get the least attention, in terms of planning and forethought. We research and plan where we will go to college, where we will live, our career opportunities, our retirement. Even our estates are planned, through wills, trusts and advance health care directives. What we do not usually plan very well -- or even understand fully -- is the aging experience we will encounter. About the Author After a career in the high tech field, the author and his wife founded Support For Home In-Home Care, responding to their own family experiences with aging parents. Learning the challenges facing family caregivers and the difficulties many of us have with the aging experience, becoming directly involved in elder care became much more meaningful than worrying about computers and information technology. The human rewards and experiences of that choice have led directly to writing this book. We hope others will benefit from our own painful and wonderful experiences.
