Suzanne has written an insightful and most helpful book that brought so many things to light for me in seeing and aiding mom as she progressed with serious dementia and let me be at peace with her need to be out of her home and well cared for with people around her all day long. I refer to this book on a continual basis and always find it a wonderful resource. Thank you, Suzanne.

This book helped put difficult family dynamics in perspective and gave good suggestions on how to work through some of them. The stress related with trying to help elderly parents can be overwhelming, and this book gave great insight on how and when to help, and when to back off. I have used many of the suggestions in relating to my parents as well as my siblings.

This book saved my family. I read it, then got copies for my four siblings. When we came home to meet with my parents, we were all in agreement about how to support them, but keep them safe. Every chapter talked to us. It was as though Suzanne had been one of our family describing what we had all experienced. Thank heaven for this book. Our parents are accepting in home care and we can breathe easily about their safety.
