About this ebook

Most books about aging discuss medical facts, anti-aging promises, self-help, or generic advice. This book is a mother’s unflinching account of growing old, written directly to her three daughters, offering instead what she wishes someone had told her: the plainly stated truth. Structured as personal essays, vignettes, and interludes, the book moves through the physical, sensory, and emotional terrain of aging with honesty and dark humor.
By reading this book, you will get an advance warning. Knowing exactly what to expect when both body and mind begin to transition will remove the fear, confusion, and shock of the unknown.
