Whether you have friends and family ready and able to help you or not, growing old does not have to be an inevitable decline into helplessness. But having a plan is essential. This practical guide goes way beyond estate planning to help readers prepare on their own for all the changes in store, empowering them to make proactive plans for their own lives rather than entrusting decisions to family and community."--Page [4] of cover.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Library For The Blind and Print Disabled Large Type LT 362.6 Lo Checked In Add Copy to MyList
