  My Favorite Mother-in-Law - A...

  How do you prepare for your own "Golden Years" when you’re still trying to figure out how to care for those who came before you? 
  When Mark Niemann-Ross realized he had "suddenly" become a senior, he didn't look to brochures or retirement seminars for guidance. Instead, he looked to his mother-in-law, Greta. 
  "My Favorite Mother-in-Law" is a heartwarming and often hilarious memoir that explores the complex, beautiful, and sometimes taxing journey of aging and caregiving. Through a series of poignant vignettes, Mark chronicles Greta’s transition from a "spark plug" of a woman—ruling her kitchen and whipping up legendary custard cream pies—to a resident in assisted living and eventually memory care. 
  With refreshing honesty and a keen eye for detail, this book navigates the difficult realities of dementia, the phenomenon of "sundowning," and the inevitable role reversals that occur between parents and their children. Yet, even in the face of Alzheimer’s and loss, Mark finds light in the absurdity of senior living: the high-stakes drama of Nickel Bingo, the peculiar theology of "God as a bartender," and the quiet beauty of hallway artwork. 
  Perfect for the "sandwich generation" or anyone currently navigating the senior care system, this book offers more than just a personal story. It is a roadmap for finding joy in the small moments, a tribute to the "small and mighty" mentors in our lives, and a reminder that while aging is mandatory, losing your sense of humor is optional. 
  If you enjoyed "Tuesdays with Morrie" or "Can't We Talk About Something More Pleasant?", you will fall in love with Greta.
