What Carey does best is create a beautiful balance between the technical, concrete caregiver survival guide rules and the loving, thorough care of a devoted daughter. Rare is it to find such an effective combination of these two vastly separate aspects. Largely, non-fictional stories rely greatly on personal experiences yet offer very little in terms of informational resources. Following a sudden medical crisis, Carey assumed the responsibilty of becoming the primary caregiver for her parents, "who cared for me in their every waking hour until I could return the favor."
Sharing her point of view following the experience of evolving from concerned daughter to medical advocate, the survival guide illustrates 49 rules full of emotionally informative advice. One of the rules, particularly directed toward the Baby Boomer generation that might be in the midst of caring for or seeking care for elderly parents is "Rule Forty Four: Get familiar with medical legalese." That's definitely valuable advice from a trustworthy source. Elderly Parents With All Their Marbles - A Survival Guide for the Kids is recommended reading for all families as unfortunately we all must take actions and face our fears.
How do you find the courage to face your fears?
