My father is a high school teacher. Next week, he will be taking a group of students around the midstate as part of a history tour for school.
He’s 74, and, while he’s not a feeble sort of 74 year old, he’s not the best driver in the world, either. It’s not a new development, it’s […]

This has got nothing to do with anything, really, but, in watching the coverage of Gerald Ford’s funeral, I am struck by how exhausting it must be for his family.
When my mother died this past summer, we ended up having to wait 5 days between her death and her funeral because of the church schedule. […]
I guess that title is misleading, because I don’t know a thing in the world about it.
I was fortunate (?) enough to care for my mother here in town, and, I have never had to support anyone who was a caregiver when I was away. But, as an only child with no extended family, in, […]

The Wall Street Journal has a blog called, The Juggle, that “covers choices and tradeoffs that people make as they juggle work and family”, certainly pertinent to the issues many of us face.

Christmas preparation didn’t leave much time for me to think about facing the first one without my mother. I have to admit, it was a little harder than I thought it would be, and, it hit me rather abruptly.
Things were fine until my father came over on Christmas Eve to eat chili and watch football […]
