"Elder Rage" or Take My Father Please!: How to Survive Caring for Aging Parents

By Jacqueline Marcell.
This was given me by my daughter, on Mother's Day, after father was diagnosed AD.  It was particularly poignant for me to read the episodes and events that had already started occurring in my life, and comparing.  An easy and quick read for the "new to Alzheimer's".  You will laugh and cry.
