Back Cover:

The years between 65 and 90 bring almost as many changes as childhood, according to Stafford. As Our Years Increase is a carefully reasoned, thorough guide for families trying to cope with aging parents or other family members. It includes practical discussions on:

Retirement finances, wills, Social Cecurity, Medicare
Child/parent relationships
How adult children can deal with depression in aging parents
How to talk to mentally confused people (like Alzheimer's victims)
How seniors can use their later years to glorify God.

"Aging is not a problem to be solved," says Stafford. "It is a gift from God, full of life and growth and joy for those who have eyes to see."
