N2  - This book offers practical advice, websites, phone numbers, and wisdom from experts in the fields of geriatrics and family counseling. Most importantly this book is intended "to draw you into the Word and to sensitize you to the work of the Spirit of God in your life. To make caregiving simply a task is a distortion of its purpose; rather, it is a divine appointment, a redemptive encounter, and an act of worship."
