Summary:

"The work is set at three points in time, five years apart, at which the author records the onset and gradual worsening of his mother's senility ... culminating in a return to a childlike state before her death. Thus, it is also the account of how one family copes with the universal problem of the frustrations and trials of aging parents."--dust jacket.
