"Susan Cunningham's 'tips book' is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to her insight. She has a special gift for understanding the concerns that alot of us have regarding our parents and the "Seniors" that we love. The "care package" that she has put together,"52 Weeks of Tips to Better Senior Living," will prove invaluable. It has made my life richer, and "happier" from having read it."

JUST RELEASED!  The Companion Guidebook to Unwrapping the Sandwich Generation.

$13.95 + $5.00 shipping and handling.

(Virginia Residents - $6.00 tax, shipping & handling)

This Guidebook has step-by-step exercises for each chapter in the 227 page book, Unwrapping the Sandwich Generation.  These thought provoking and stimulating exercises help you bridge the issues of aging, appreciate the bounty and beauty of growing older, address senior issues with grace and expand your own understanding of the aging process. Let each vignette in the book resonate for you as an individual and then share your feelings and thoughts. You will be amazed at how different people can read the same thing and yet have different responses! This is a great way to stimulate conversations with your siblings and family.  

The Guidebook will invite you to "ask yourself" some questions after reading a vignette in the book ~ questions such as, "in this vignette, how does the feeling of independence or the lack of independence, jump out at you?" 

Then you will be encouraged to "discuss" the topic ~ such as, "what does being independent in your senior years mean to you?"

Finally you will be asked to think about a corresponding topic "just for the next few days" ~ such as, "what arrangements have you made for remaining independent in your senior years?"

Relax with the book and then experience the new ideas that will emerge from it with the Companion Guidebook. Happy aging!
