How To Take Care of Old People Without Losing Your Marbles is your sanity-saving practical guide to eldercare.

Who plans to add eldercare to their list of life's already full plate of responsibilities? Not anyone we know. Eldercare lands in your lap with an emergency. It continues to be punctuated by emergencies all the along the journey. That often makes the responsibility of taking care of our parents and family elders challenging, frustrating, and even overwhelming.

We already have a full plate of life's responsibilities before we add eldercare. Blankenship has been there and has developed a practical approach to navigating those uncharted waters - she uses organization and humor. And, she covers 20 chapters in just 169 pages. Blankenship knows you need practical guidance, not an exhaustive reference manual. Your time for reading on this topic is limited. This book makes the most of it.

With Blankenship's guidance, you can stay ahead of the next emergency in eldercare. You'll:

  • get organized,
  • have the paperwork in order,
  • know what's what in Medicare and supplemental insurance,
  • be aware of your elder's financial status and preferences,
  • have an idea of choices for where they'll live,
  • know what to do if they need extra help,
  • be prepared to share the care with siblings and relatives,
  • figure out how to sort/save/reduce their 70-80 years of treasures,
  • use a good laugh to lighten the load and ease the hard times, and
  • most importantly, be able to spend more time in the care of eldercare and less time in a panic.

Written with humor and steeped in practical tips, Blankenship's book will be your next best friend. Easy to read on your flight home, short enough to finish in one night and practical enough to smooth your learning curve, How To Take Care of Old People Without Losing Your Marbles will be your go-to guide throughout the eldercare journey from beginning to end.

Suzanne Blankenship spent three decades in eldercare with aging parents and in-laws. She has used her business background to develop tools, tips, and guidance that bring an organized approach to an otherwise randomly arriving responsibility. Tools from the trenches, served with spot-on humor and a realistic perspective - simply put, Blankenship makes eldercare easier.
