Review: The gift of aging - Very interesting read
Review: Another good read, written by Dr. Elizabeth Eckstrom, a leading specialist in geriatric medicine. Her writing voice is as warm and approachable as an old-fashioned family doctor, and her explanations of medical issues are understandable to the layperson. Mary Cottrell Houle shares in the writing, and her perspective as the daughter of aging parents offers another layer of inspiration.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***E on 21 October 2025*

Sensible advice. The title is slightly problematic. The book does not make you believe or even accept that aging is a “gift”. It does draw your attention to caring for yourself in old age.
