DESCRIPTION:
Odds are that most Americans will one day be in the hands of a caregiver. Here we can share our thoughts on topics ranging from "favorite foods" to "fears," from "the medications I take" to "how I want my funeral to be handled." A stranger -- even our own spouses -- might now know these things. This diary-sized book allows any of us to write down those critical bits of data that we want our caregivers to know about us. Regardless of who cares for us, it is critical that we provide those people with all of the information we can that will make their jobs and our lives easier. Odds are that the caregiver will not be a spouse or adult child -- but a stranger. Regarded as one of the most important books to come out in recent year
