As a former caregiver to my late husband, I now find myself worried about my own health and wellbeing when the inevitable illnesses and decline come knocking. How do I navigate this without being a burden to my children? Especially as they do not live in close proximity? I look forward to the next 8 weeks!
I've also got a book coming out in September about aging in place called On Your Own Terms. The premise of the book is that staying in your own home is a strategy, not a default, and you need to manage it actively. It's full of very practical advice on a variety of subjects, including taking care of your house, preventing falls, managing health from home, and many more. It ends with a chapter called When Staying Put Stops Working which talks about the decision that staying at home isn't working anymore.
If you subscribe to TheSeniorTechie, you'll see its release announced there.
