Role Reversal is a comprehensive guide for the 45 million people currently taking care of family members who need assistance because of health-related problems. It is written to help caregivers understand how to cope with and overcome the overwhelming challenges faced by caregivers.
Ms. Waichler shares her personal experience caring for her beloved father and his life story with her forty years of expertise as a patient advocate and clinical social worker. The result is a book offering invaluable information on topics ranging from estate planning to grief, building a support network and finding the right type of care for your aging parent.
“This book is sure to help in the understanding of words like ‘hospice’ and ‘Alzheimer’s’… More than anything, though, it reflects on decline such that dignity may be preserved. This award winning book is certain to lift your spirits, raise your intellect, and contribute to the purpose behind giving back to what parents gave their children.”
