Slow Dancing At Death's Door

Helping Your Parent Through The Last Stages Of Life

Plot

The loss of one's parents is a devastating experience. To lose both within two years, after a five-year dance with disease and death, is even more heart-wrenching. This was the author's personal experience, beginning with the decline of her mother's health in 1998, her subsequent death in 2001, and her father's death in 2003. Amy C. Baker suddenly found herself multi-tasking in a way she'd never imagined. Besides being a mother, a corporate executive and volunteer at church and school, she found herself thrust into the new roles of managing her parents' health care, finances and property. This book demonstrates how God's unfathomable love carries us through these unforeseen seasons of life.
