19. Caregiving for an Aging Parent From Afar: Six Ways to Help



           With many people facing financial difficulties, it is hard to find a good way for them to care for their aging parents and keep the wallet in check.  Though it can be hard making them go somewhere off, people can still care for their old man and mother.  How?  That is what Suzanna de Baca shows, very well, in her article.

           This article is very touching to a person with a bleeding heart, like me, with its many appeals to pathos.  With illustrations of de Baca’s own past experiences, she portrays sweet and sad images.  Not only are her pieces of advice comforting and manageable, but they are from an experienced person.  Consider moving Mom or Dad in with you, get the facts, be in touch – often, plan a budget for your travel, choose the appropriate primary caregiver and services, and learn about the sources of financial help are the six steps offered by de Baca.  To help her stand, she loads each example with details and reasons behind it.
