Supporting our aging parents

An open thread for community members

Mom and me at Crater Lake National Park in Oregon

“The sandwich generation” refers to those of us caring for our kids and our aging parents at the same time. While my kids are grown and my Mom lives independently in a nearby retirement community, my roles as mother and daughter have never felt more closely tied.

Are you caring for your aging parents, either now or in the future? I’m guessing we have similar questions and worries, and possibly tips to share.

It sure would be nice to talk about how we’re all approaching (and living) this juncture.
