Lessons of Love - Paperback

by Marsha J. O'Brien (Author)

There are over one hundred million people over fifty years old.! In a few years, there will be seventy million over sixty-five. The eighty-five and older age group is expanding more than three times faster than the rest of the population.

There are sixty million people between forty and sixty caring for an elderly person! The demand for caregivers is increasing exponentially.

YOU NEED HELP NOW BEFORE IT HAPPENS! Don't be harsh or abusive, go insane, have conflict in your own home or have memories that include, "I wish I had done better when I was caregiving."

Do you love your parents or any elderly persons? The print is just a bit bigger for easy reading for both the caregiver and the person showing what love means. Ten years as Mama's caregiver taught us both so much helping us successfully navigate through impossible times!

If you think these statistics are not important, think again! YOU will be called upon to care for parents, grandparents, a husband or partner, or simply friends. It may happen suddenly without notice, or you may see it coming. These folks are all of us in the near future!

This book is not limited to women. The techniques are applicable to anyone facing this daunting position.

During your time as a caregiver, you may find yourself frustrated, angry, impatient, or even questioning why you were "subjected" to this never-ending job of servitude. As you learn techniques, you will come to the realization, there is an end to the position! You will find closure, and good memories, but only, if you have done your best!

Human beings channel information about important issues. This book shares the experience of a powerful woman who starts to lose her strength and freedoms, and must rely on someone simply to get through the day.

Mother and daughter faced years of increasing disabilities and challenges, until they faced the issue of death itself. The survivor faced sorrow and recovery.

Learn from both the caregiver and the receiver. The author has included a few pertinent Bible verses within the pages. She believes the Book is a life-guide for all of us, even non-believers. The logic and intelligence found in the verses, will be additional help to the to you, and you will discover the relevance of them.
