Left to Figure It Out

Caring for Aging Parents in a System That Doesn't Coordinate Care

When medical care becomes fragmented, families are often left to coordinate what the healthcare system does not.

​

Written during my mother's final months, Left to Figure It Out recounts the challenges my sister and I faced navigating medical uncertainty, medication concerns, and difficult decisions while caring for our aging mother at home.

​

It is a personal account of family responsibility, patient dignity, and the importance of asking questions when the answers are not clear.
