this is a painful read, especially towards the end of his father's life. he is honest about the indignity of advanced dementia the stress of caregiving and the distress of surrogate decision making. i am humbled as an aging person a daughter a care provider and a fellow human.
they need to make this required reading for somebodies.
he writes best when describing gritty unpleasantnesses, by the way. like the choked toilet. you want to retch along.
