But our health-care system doesn't perform as well when decline eventually sets in. We want to do our best as our loved ones face new complications--more diseases and disabilities--demanding further need for support and careful judgment, but the choices we have to make can seem overwhelming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFamily doctor and geriatrician Dennis McCullough recommends a new approach: Slow Medicine. Shaped by common sense and kindness, it advocates for careful anticipatory \"attending\" to an elder's changing needs rather than waiting for crises that force acute medical interventions--thereby improving the quality of elders' extended late lives without bankrupting their families financially or emotionally. This is not a plan for preparing for death; it is a plan for understanding, for caring, and for helping those you love live well during their final years. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dennis McCullough\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0061243035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780061243035\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Harper Perennial\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/27\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.96h x 5.30w x 0.72d","brand":"Dennis McCullough","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994733969663,"sku":"9780061243035","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9b5eaefe-c8c3-43c4-ad54-8ceea2323dd5.jpg?v=1683331874","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/my-mother-your-mother-dennis-mccullough-9780061243035","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
