A candid, comic, and moving account of one daughter's struggle to manage the care of her elderly parents. Told with a keen eye for the absurd, the narrative balances moments of heartbreak with unexpected levity as family roles shift and memory falters.

The book examines dementia, Alzheimer’s, family responsibility and the emotional collisions that occur when adult children try to protect parents while preserving their own lives. Vivid episodes—from late-night conspiracies to awkward care interventions—reveal the complexity of caregiving.

Recommended for readers facing eldercare decisions or anyone interested in intimate, humane writing about aging, family dynamics, and resilience.
