mastering the art of caring...


"If we want to improve life for everybody in our society, one of the very best places to begin is to change how we think about, care for, honor our elders. That thread, if you trace it all the way back, it woven through the whole context of our social lives, our families, our curches, our connunities. If we can master the art of caring for our elders, we can make a better society for everybody to live in."
-William H. Thomas, M.D., caregiving advocate and founder of the Eden Alternative in Sherbourne, New York (www.edenalternative.com)
