Ask Maggie Rose

Managing life's Sweet Sorrow is a small collection of works by Maggie Rose. It is dedicated to the growing number of men and women who find themselves in the role of primary caregiver to an aging and/or ailing parent or spouse. Her letters and poems touch at the heart of the challenging role of being a caregiver and the many tough questions we have to ask ourselves as we work our way through the daily changes in responsibilities we face as our loved ones age. Maggie Rose's column, "Ask Maggie Rose," appears in the Belmont Citizen-Herald. The Council on Aging in Belmont, Massachusetts endorses this column. Maggie Rose lives in Belmont with her husband and dad. You can reach her at maggiero8@verizon.net or send your mail to Ask Maggie Rose, 266 Beech Street, Belmont, MA 02478.
