520    In this book, author and biologist Marcy Houle shares her 
       personal journey of caring for her father, a surgeon, who 
       developed Alzheimer's disease, and later her mother, who 
       succumbed to other medical conditions. Like many children 
       of aging parents, Marcy often felt powerless traveling 
       this sad trajectory-watching them fall through the cracks 
       of a fragmented and confusing healthcare system, where 
       professionals often wrote off their symptoms as "just old 
       age." The tragic secret? According to coauthor and 
       geriatrics physician Elizabeth Eckstrom, these symptoms 
       frequently are not "just old age." Rather, the problem is 
       that the current healthcare delivery model for older 
       people is ill-equipped to provide the comprehensive, 
       person-centered care seniors need. Today, thousands of 
       aging people face unnecessary suffering, hospitalizations,
       nursing home stays, and even death due to complications 
       that could have been prevented or treated. The Gift of 
       Caring reveals these pitfalls and provides families with 
       tools they can use to avoid them. Dr. Eckstrom shares 
       professional medical insights into what Marcy could have 
       done to safeguard her parents and shows how we can become 
       our loved one's best advocate.
