From About Tender Loving Eldercare
Tender Loving Eldercare is a blog that helps you provide Tender Loving Care (TLC) for your aging parents.
44 million Americans (21% of the U.S. population) are currently providing unpaid care for older friends and family. (AARP Public Policy Institute and ASU Research)
This site was created to share my knowledge, resources, experience and insight into family caregiving. As a baby boomer, many friends are starting to face the same issues I have already experienced since my parents are older than most boomers’ parents. I am happy to share what I’ve learned being sole caregiver for my parents since 2000.
I hope it is a place where other family caregivers can go to learn from, encourage and support each other. I want to learn from you as well and welcome your comments!
And this site is here to increase awareness of, and empathy for, families in this stage of their lives — both the seniors and the younger generation caring for them.
I hope when you come here, you get something of value . . . . and leave feeling better than when you arrived.
Who is Linda Abbit?
I am the author of this blog and a classic example of the Sandwich Generation. I have a B.S. and M.S. in Education and am a daughter, wife, and mother — first to my son, and then to my aging parents. This blog is dedicated to the memory of my dear father, Al Brodsky (1906 – 2005), and in honor of my mom, Aida. Yes, the photos at the top of the page are of us.
For fun (and stress relief) I dance, practice yoga and play mah jongg. I love to read and laugh, though not necessarily together. One of my dreams is to see as much of this wonder-filled world as I can.
