The Gift of Caring

In The Gift of Caring, author Marcy Houle recounts her experiences caring for her aging parents as they navigated the complexities of a fragmented healthcare system. Joined by geriatrics physician Elizabeth Eckstrom, the book highlights the often-overlooked symptoms of aging that are not just a natural part of growing older. They provide essential insights and practical tools for families, empowering them to advocate for their loved ones and avoid unnecessary suffering in a system ill-equipped to meet the needs of seniors.
