Rate this book
親子關係,是前世約定,彼此陪伴,走在看似悠長,其實匆促的歲月中,享受福分,也學做功課;有失去,也有獲得。當子女從被照顧者轉換成照顧者,透過自省與學習,與爸媽一起經歷的人生,即使陪病伴老,也能到達「沒有負擔,彼此祝福」的境界。那一刻起,我知道:人生旅途上的這輛家庭房車,已經開始換手駕駛。我必須承擔照顧爸媽的責任,以無比的勇氣與決心,一肩扛起他們往後的人生。──吳若權二○一七年,台灣將從「高齡化社會」邁入「高齡社會」,老年人口將占總人口的百分之十四,無論單身或已婚的中年子女,如何照顧與面對陪伴爸媽老後的人生,已是刻不容緩的課題。是否覺得自己為老爸老媽做牛做馬,卻仍然無法讓他們展現歡顏?照顧者與被照顧者之間,宛如愛恨情仇的連續劇,是親密,還是對立?當父母的記憶被扭曲,滿腹的委屈與計較,是為了爭辯事實,還是害怕自己付出的勞苦沒有被記住?原來,我們都以為自己的付出是不求回報的;原來,沒有人教過我們,讀懂長輩臉上的愁苦,不只是來自病痛的折磨,還有更深層的愧疚與更強悍的尊重;原來,照顧長輩的同時,要記得放掉心裡的鬧鐘,先學會放鬆,

The author shares what he learnt from taking care of his parents for an extended period of time, as his parents need substantial care after multiple strokes in their early 60s. Chapters in the first third, with practical tips, are more welcomed than the rest but this book can use a brief summary: “Be a selfless saint and devote your life to your crippled parents”, which is clearly only applicable to a narrow sector of his readers.
To be fair, he did direct readers to his other books on mindfulness and positive thinking but the one here may work a bit better as memoir than a self-help or how-to book.

Some touching points but the contents are so repetitive which made me annoyed and bored.
