Help your parents live with dignity in their twilight years without sacrificing your own health and sanity.

When elderly parents can no longer care for themselves, the responsibility for their care usually falls on their adult children. This guide will help you navigate this difficult journey so that you can take care of your parents without unnecessarily disrupting your life. Filled with insights from the author’s own personal experience with caring for her aging mother, it will make your caregiving experience more manageable and more rewarding, right from the start.

And much more.

Caregiving is never easy no matter who you’re caring for, but it’s even harder when you’re taking care of a parent. But while you can’t turn back time, you can make this time count by providing them with a caring environment and unconditional support. Your parents have spent decades doting on you and attending to your needs—now it’s your turn to do the same for them.

Great Resource!

Being in the healthcare field, and having aging parents, I felt this book was well timed and well written. These are one of those times in life when many don't know where to turn and what resources are available to assist them in caring for parents who are aging and need additional assistance. This book is a great resource to demystify the complexities of navigating the aging scene.

This is a fantastic book. I would recommend

Great book.. There are so many takeaways from this book that we can all learn from. As a nurse I believe that delaying the aging process is essential and this gives so many excellent tips on how to do this. I would certainly recommended this for anyone who has to support their aging parents in order to be able to spend as much quality time with them as possible.

Very insightful

I got this audiobook to help in the situation we are in right now. It's not with my parents, rather my grandparents but they might as well be my parents too. It's a lot to deal with and adjust to for everyone involved. The author did an excellent job giving her own insight and experience for the reader to understand and connect with. She covered a lot of items, even the embarrassing ones, which I appreciated.

Full of compassionate information

This is a wonderful book that is easy to read and well narrated. It has good resources mentioned as well. Great advice for those living with aging parents and strategies on how to cope. I highly recommend this book!

So relatable

I've been telling many of my close friends the past few years that I get a little emotional when I see my parents aging. Seeing what my parents go through with their parents as their health declined made me very sad. Even though my parents are not at that age yet, I find this book quite relatable. My grandmother had Alzheimer's and she passed away a few years ago. This book gives me some comfort that our family was not alone in this experience. Michelle provides good advice on how to communicate and take care of your aging parents so they can live long and healthy. Thank you for sharing your tips!

Helpful

What a blessing of a book. This audio has been insightful for me. It’s a new subject that I deal with and now am more prepared. I loved all the strategies and how to talk about it. Thanks to the author for a great narration.

Excellent Book!

"It's Just A Senior Moment" was packed full of information. I love this audiobook and found it so helpful because my own Mom has dementia. Things covered in his audiobook are; Memory Loss vs Dementia vs Alzheimer's, The Importance of Getting Professional Help, Emotional Overload, Strategies to Slow Down Memory Loss, Strategies to Slow Down Declining Health, and so much more! I would recommend this audiobook to everyone!

Fantastic book!

I have ageing parents and this is a daunting phase of life. The thought of 'what is next' has honestly given me anxiety with the amount of variables i will have to contend with. This book was recommended to me by a friend and i have not been let down. This book carefully walked me through every step, feeling and situation i am currently going through and gave me the confidence and tools i need in this next phase of life. I cannot recommend this book more! BRILLIANT!

A ray of sunshine during difficult times

I simply loved how this book allowed to reduce the heaviness that comes with watching your parents/grandparents lose their abilities and having to step in and become a caregiver. It is such a difficult situation, however this listen reminded me that it does not have to weigh so heavily on us, all of the time. I can see how painful and frustrating it is for my elderly grandfather to have to face losing physical and mental abilities, and the last thing I want is to be an additional source of shame or burden. I'm very grateful I had a chance to listen to this book and begin to change my outlook on this situation.

Compassionate Help

My sisters and I are taking care of our elderly mother and this audiobook really helped us understand how to handle all these situations that we've never been in before with our mother. This book was so compassionate and gave us hope. We especially appreciated the other stories of some of the other people in our situation. Highly recommend if you need hope and help taking care of your aging parents.
