The author, Natalie Yuen, reflects on her own struggle to grieve her father's dementia and cope with the loss of logic and memory after decades of caring for his loved ones. She recently broke her silence while helping her father move into a memory-care unit, where he will be cared for by nurses and aides, not her mom. Yuen's emotional journey to the memory-level level of dementia led to uncertainty and guilt over his new home and future home. The author acknowledges the difficulty of moving parents out of homes and navigating wait-outs and hospital discharges, and dealing with an already strained eldercare system. Despite these challenges, Yuen remains committed to helping her dad, who is now 80, the age the oldest baby boomers will turn in 2025.
