Never mind death or taxes-what people fear most is entering a nursing home. But that's exactly where Jean Misura plunked herself down to live. Where else could she find good-natured teasing over the size of her fanny on a bedpan? Despite what she told her husband-whom she divorced to relieve from financial ruin and the relentless caretaking caused by her multiple sclerosis-she did fear the prospect of being surrounded by the dying and the not dead yet. At first. Before she began laughing. In her tales about her caregivers and fellow residents-sometimes wise, sometimes demented-Jean discovers that neither bedpans, nor diapers, nor disease can erase human dignity. And yet, when those she loves begin to betray her and slip away, will the ache of loss grow too great to bear?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Misura\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McKinnon Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780997787801\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJean Misura, a nursing-home newspaper writer and biographer, had a penchant for grammar, and, more importantly, for sniffing out characters.
