“Aging Well 2020 And Caregiving” by Walter Oleksy and Avis Carlson is a gripping book about growing old, now up for grabs
Author Reputation Press is pleased to announce the release of Aging Well 2020 and Caregiving, a book on aging written by Walter Oleksy and Avis Carlson.
The book provides a conversational and sometimes humorous read on the authors’ experiences growing old as well as about caregiving. Most books on aging are written by those aged fifty or younger who never experienced the senior years. The authors of this book are 80 and 90 years old, talking about aging and caregiving from the Old horse’s mouth.
Oleksy, 90, author of more than thirty books and a former Chicago Tribune feature writer, reports the latest medical achievements for Alzheimer’s, dementia, and other afflictions of the elderly. From his own experience as a caregiver, he offers advice on caregiving and nursing home visiting.
Carlson wrote a weekly newspaper column on aging for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch when she was 80. She tells about the cons of aging: identity problems, self-esteem, aloneness; and the pros of aging: freedoms in aging, acceptance of age, sex and aging, achieving religious growth, laughing at life and death.
