Quick post, more to follow: people my age are writing books about dealing with their aging parents. But I have yet to read a book that actually presents the truth, the down and dirty details about dealing with our really old parents. Most of the current books are all touch-feely about the entire situation, sugar-coating the nasty bits, glossing over the poop and the pee and the bruises and the crying and the resistance.
It's not that I want to write the Really True Book about putting one's parent in a "place" but maybe that book needs to be written.
More to follow, it's been a long day and another one looms tomorrow.
