One day the odds are that we'll find ourselves in the hands of caregivers. Be they adult children, siblings, close friends, or complete strangers, it is critical that these caregivers know as much about us as possible so they can provide the best care possible. Who Cares is a means to those ends. Designed in a diary or journal format, the book provides ample space for individuals to share those aspects of their lives that they want others to know about. From things as mundane as favorite toothpaste, lipstick color or shaving foam to personal feelings about life support and death, this book covers the waterfront. Here is an opportunity to reveal your personal history (from education and work experience to hobbies) as well as important medical information - information that could save your life and make your final days more comfortable and peaceful. Whether one remains in their own house or are cared for in an institutional setting, Who Cares can provide future caregivers with virtually all of the information they could possibly need to know in order to provide a dignified care giving environment - with more effectiveness and less stress or guilt. Perfect for spouses to share, for close friends and family, as well as for those who live alone.Marrella, Dee is the author of 'Who Cares A Loving Guide for Caregivers', published 2002 under ISBN 9780970844484 and ISBN 0970844484.
