As Love Wrinkles eBook Ann Preston Louise Cowan


Caregiving comes with heartfelt devotion and heartbreaking inner turmoil. Caregiving, especially for an elderly family member, is a silent epidemic afflicting millions of people in the United States. While the caregiver is taking care of a loved one or an aging parent, who is taking care of the caregiver? Whether you are a baby boomer in the core of the sandwich generation or a person facing the day-to-day, demanding responsibility of caring for a loved one of any age with a disability or failing health, this book is for you. It captures the depth of every human emotion. As our own mothers aged, we welcomed them to live in our homes with hopes of caring for them until their final day. We shockingly woke one day to realize the mothers we loved had evolved into mothers with strange thoughts and behaviors that we were not fully prepared to understand and deal with. We found ourselves adrift in unknown waters in a boat with a hole in it. As our rose-colored glasses shattered along with our hopes of being perfect caregivers, we were thrown into a world of chaos of which the unfortunate outcome would be the loss of someone we truly loved. Our individual stories embody two raw confessions of the reality caregivers are suddenly and overwhelmingly consumed with, while caring for aging mothers. Our goal now is to reach the desperate people who’ve been thrown into this turmoil and are trying to navigate this unfamiliar world and come to terms with their conflicting emotions. The perspective we bring does not come from a professional standpoint but from the heartbreaking and demanding front lines of being the sole caregiver. These are our stories of love and commitment tested until the last breath and longer.

This is a must read for those who are going through the challenges of caring for moms, dads and other aging loved ones. Movingly honest, the authors relate what it is really like to try to do the best you can under trying (very trying) circumstances. I found it a tremendous comfort to know that others faced the many issues that I faced with my own mom and that my husband faced with his dad. Its not easy to become the parent or to deal with a parent who has turned into a new version of his or her old self. Its an inspiring and well written book.Product details

As Love Wrinkles eBook Ann Preston Louise Cowan Reviews
Beautifully written and so bittersweet! I loved it.....
An inspirational account, beautifully shared.
Very good book. It help you understand aging. A must read for anyone dealing with this type situation. It is written by two didicated loving daughters.
I expected hints to guide me through this arduous journey. The preview was great, but the full book didn’t lead me the way I hoped.
A wonderful book that understands the love and heartache that a caregiver experiences.
This is a superbly written, wise, candid and tender sharing of two women's personal parental caretaking experiences and I loved it. Readers will find sage advice and hope told in a humble, warm, encouraging and understanding way. They've walked the walk and who better to turn to when in need? It's a book worth reading and sharing.
As Love Wrinkles is a very good resource for caregivers who are currently, have in the past, or will in the future deal with the complexities unique to "parenting your parent", as the authors refer to it. Ann and Louise share very personal stories of their experiences in caring for their mothers that most caregivers will identify with in their everyday frustrations of caregiving for parents. The authors emphasize that these frustrations do not cloud the love that we feel for our parents as they age.
