Lessons from My Father for My Son is a handbook that is based on lessons learned from acting as a caretaker for an aging father. The book is a compilation of thoughts and suggestions in the form of poems, lists, and prose which reflect upon the process of aging in general. Sometimes raw, sometimes tender, the book helps the reader to take a peek at the aging process by examining their parents' lives, as well as their own. The author hopes that the handbook might make the surreal nature of taking care of those who took care of us a bit less daunting. She wants to tell adult children, like her son, some things they may not know because they are not yet old. Ms. Manzi wishes that she knew at the onset of her caretaking what she learned, in retrospect, and shares here.
