Some Caring for Aging Parent Resources

young and older handsI heard from a number of people about last Sunday’s talk on caring for aging parents. For some it was a sense of permission to have the “talk” and yet for others it was an affirmation that they’d done well in caring for mom and dad. You did the best you could with the information you had when you had it. Obviously the care for older parents is a very real life situation for many. I’m grateful for the stories you shared the past couple of days. What God has done and is doing in the lives of Cool Spring caregivers is amazing.
