About this listen
If given the choice, most seniors prefer to live independently at home for life. This book, 6 Signs Your Parent Needs Help at Home, is written for adult children of seniors, whose parent lives independently but may be nearing a time when they need a little outside support to continue doing so. Knowing when and how to provide this support is vital in every family. This little book calls attention to the non-verbal clues your parent may be sending you. These important signals are often missed, which delays support for months or even years, and puts parents at risk. The 6 Signs Your Parent Needs Help at Home is written by patient safety and quality care advocate DK Raymer. DK is a consultant for seniors and their families, and for companies and agencies that serve the senior community. She is also a novelist and screenwriter, and the co-founder of a patient advocacy organization.

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Throughout my life I have done things my way, and they have always worked out - as if I've had luck in my corner. All of my optimism and bravado came to a crashing halt one cold December holiday night, when after an evening out with good friends, I suffered an accident. I was beaten with a pipe and later found under a moving train, resulting in quadriplegia. Given virtually no chance to walk again, I was devastated. But I also had hope, and lots of it. A fire that exists deep within, and has since childhood, burns on no matter the circumstances. I am here for a bigger mission. What would that mission now be?
