Anne Morrow Lindbergh, in her early nineties, moved to her daughter Reeve's farm because a series of small strokes left her unable to completely care for herself. In this book, Reeve gently chronicles her mother's last seventeen months. Anyone who cares for aged parents (or even thinks about that eventuality) will benefit from Reeve's words. I was surprised to read my own feelings articulated in a way I never could have expressed. I found this little book a great comfort.
