The Moon in the Water: Reflections on an Aging Parent

This is a book for every Boomer trying to balance their spiritual ideals of the ‘60s with the wearing realities of middle age. The author enlists the practical inspiration of Water-Moon Kuan Yin, a Buddhist goddess associated with compassion, to aid in the mundane challenges of caring for her aging father - transferring his health insurance, struggling with a wheelchair van, managing adult diapers, or playing in the fictions of his dementia.
