A Living Remedy: A Memoir

This book was so perfect for me at this time. A friend bought this book for me when I was struggling with a very difficult situation. My dad was in the hospital and the doctors said he needed to go into a facility. He became combative and was very confused. It is so hard to be so very far away and unable to help my siblings. I live in Alaska and my dad was in Georgia. I have my own health problems too and making that long trip alone was not a possibility for me. I knew I needed to plan a trip soon or it would be too late but he died a lot sooner than anyone expected. I ended up getting there for his funeral instead. Nicole Chung delt with a similar thing but she lost both parents close together. I started reading this book when my dad was in the hospital and finished it on the plane to Georgia. It was a very emotional read for me but it is a book I will go back to. I am glad I have this book on my kindle so I was able to highlight lines I want to go back to.
