Gifts You Bring : Your Gift of Presence

These three books are written specifically for a family who has made a long-term care placement, and is now walking the difficult road to adjustment. Doug believes that family members have a special place, and special "gifts," to offer their loved one after the move to a facility, but guilt and lack of communication often block their best efforts. "Your Gift of Presence provides suggestions, and innovative ideas, for being an active participant in your loved one's life. From being a listening ear, and understanding the frustration and anger of your loved one, to projects, and ongoing activities, that keep your loved one engaged in the world. Doug's message is simple...the best gift is you.Manning, Doug is the author of 'Gifts You Bring : Your Gift of Presence', published 2002 under ISBN 9781892785459 and ISBN 1892785455.
