I am a daughter, mother, grandmother, sister, friend, reader, story writer,
attention payer, wanderer, picture taker, hiker.
For six years, I accompanied my mother to her end of days,
and wrote down the story.
Now, traversing the bridge toward old age myself,
I'm exploring what it means to be an elder.

This website is undergoing renovation. Please bear with the construction mess
as I prepare it to include my coming-soon new memoir!

P.S. I have changed the eLetter focus from caregiving to our own aging. The third act is a time of life for which we have no name; no longer mid-life, not yet old. If you are staring this transition in the face, I hope you will join me on the page as we explore together!

P.P.S. I will never share your email address!
