Explores the mother-daughter relationship in the context of
caregiving Across the Unites States, about 34.2 million Americans
have provided unpaid care to an adult age 50 or older in the last
12 months. Much of this caregiving is performed by women and often
for their mothers or mothers-in-law, relationships that may be
warm, fraught, or complicated. Even in the best of circumstances,
caregivers can feel burned out, strained, and exhausted, but add to
the mix the complicated emotions that come from caring for a loved
one and you may have a perfect storm. Here, Jeanne Lord provides
valuable emotional support and information for daughter caregivers
to mother care-receivers during a stressful and uncertain time. It
is unique in that it offers not only personal insights from
caregiving daughters, but the perspectives of their mothers, as
well. Lord followed the women on their journeys over the course of
ten years, so the follow-up interviews give readers an opportunity
to fast forward into the future lives of the caregiving daughters
to read about their perspectives, and gain insights into new
attitudes and ideas for life after caregiving. Through compelling
stories and in-depth interviews, the very complex relationships
between mothers and daughters in a caregiving situation are
explored and revealed in an objective light. Offering comfort and
understanding to the reader, the book also offers suggestions,
ideas, resources, and support for navigating the care of their
loved one.
