About the Author

Patricia Hoolihan's previous books include three daily meditation books: one for parents of teens, one for teen girls and one for mothers in recovery. She has also authored a book on parenting teens into adulthood and, most recently, published a memoir Storm Prayers: Retrieving and Reimagining Matters of the Soul (North Star Press). This book for caregivers is the one she wishes she had had when she was walking with her parents and other beloved family elders through their last months and years. She teaches writing at The Loft in Minneapolis and at Metropolitan State University.
