Author: Corinne Neme-Peyron
Old age is often taboo in our contemporary society. How then can the child of an aging parent find the resources they need to support their parents?
Using her experiences as a hospital chaplain and therapist, the author discusses the challenges we face when the time arises to support a loved one in their old age.
How to experience this new stage?
How to find the balance between autonomy and dependence?
Are there alternatives to home care and retirement homes?
How to manage family tensions, logistics, financial issues, the balance to be found in the bond, the sharing of faith, the importance of knowing how to protect oneself but also of being well prepared...?
So many questions that the author raises with empathy while providing very concrete resources so that this stage of life can be lived with serenity and humanity.
