Declining Into More

by Emily Wheeler

Before drug abuse left her father-in-law afflicted with dementia, Emily Wheeler already knew the troubles of the human decline having grown up around her Grandma Anna. Emily cherished opportunities to support her grandmother through the aging process because of the special bond they shared. However, absorbing the responsibility to care for her father-in-law years later, a man who'd been a disloyal, absent father, came with more hesitation. Declining into More reveals the complex burdens and tender rewards associated with caregiving and what is given and taken when sacrificing for another.
