520    Amal Awad's life changed when her father was diagnosed 
       with kidney failure. It was a shock to see the impact it 
       had on him, both physically and mentally, and the way the 
       side effects trickled onto those around him. Work had 
       always made him feel whole and retirement was a challenge.
       On a mission to help her father and support her mother, 
       Amal began spending every Friday with her parents. She saw
       the gaps in discussion around ageing and sickness. Amal's 
       personal experiences prompted her to explore how 
       Australians are ageing, how sickness affects the afflicted
       and those around them, and what solutions exist when hope 
       seems lost. So many people are similarly navigating a new 
       reality - weeks dotted with doctor appointments; 
       conversations that deplete and reveal at the same time; 
       reshaped family relationships. Amal speaks with doctors, 
       nurses, an aged care psychologist, specialists, 
       politicians, ageing people living alone and others in a 
       retirement village, to gain insights and to consider 
       solutions. At a time when ageism and health is high on the
       public's radar, what we're not always talking about is how
       to deal with the anxiety, depression and overall 
       challenges that come with someone you love facing their 
       mortality and a decline in health. Fridays with My Folks 
       shares heartfelt, honest stories that will help others who
       are in similar positions. People who are having to 
       reorient themselves when the boat has taken a battering 
       and they have to take a new direction. This book stems 
       from personal experiences, but it expands to a much wider,
       more universal discussion about life, suffering, coping 
       and hope.
