Caring for Older Adults
Deborah Blumberg and Miriam Baker
Many people are juggling jobs, families and their parents’ or other family members’ increasing medical needs, frequent emergencies and ongoing need for care. How do we cope with the needs of our loved ones and find some balance in our own lives? What do we need to learn as we take on this task? How do we find information and community? If you find yourself in this position, you are welcome at this group for discussion and support.
4th Sundays, 7pm, Library
For more information or to register, please contact Deborah at dBlu...@uubelmont.org

Book Group to discuss Lily King’s Father of the Rain on Wednesday, May 23 at 7:30 p.m. in the Library
Lily King’s Father of the Rain, 2010 New England Book Award winner for fiction, comes highly recommended by two Book Group members. Publisher’s Weekly provided this description, “[King’s] third novel, narrated by the clear-eyed daughter of an alcoholic father, follows their evolving relationship. The opening scene-- with 11-year-old Daley and her father wreaking delirious havoc by streaking naked at a martini-fueled pool party in the sleepy Boston suburbs-- brims with Daley's love for her father and desire for connection with him, but is also tinged with the repercussions of a charismatic man divorced from the role of parenthood . . . King's latest is original and deftly drawn, the work of a master psychological portraitist.” Please come join us!
The Book Group warmly welcomes new members and returning members at any time, whether you have finished reading the book or just begun. We meet on the fourth Wednesday of most months. If you have questions about the Book Group, please contact Anne Stuart atast...@uubelmont.org.
