Taking Care of Mom, Taking Care of Me
Sima Schloss, an observant Jew, talks about the choices a caregiver makes, and the resulting stress that ensues, in caring for an aging parent or relative, in this case, her ninety-plus years old grandmother (whom she affectionately called Mom), who is in declining health. In Sima's own words, "As a Jew, I know that I am commanded to perform acts of loving-kindness, including visiting the sick. I tried my best to be attentive to my loved ones as they endured sickness and faced death. In the beginning of the five years, I tried so hard that I lost myself in the process. I was so addicted to taking care of other people, I forgot to take care of myself. Then I founded Codependents Anonymous (CoDA), a self-help organization that uses meetings and the twelve steps of recovery to build healthier lives. I used the steps to forge a healthy balance between kindness to others and kindness to myself"--from chapter one.
Judaism in a Nutshell
With this book, award-winning author Shimon Apisdorf turns his sights and insights to the Jewish homeland. For over three millenia, Israel has been a focal point for the Jews everywhere, and for the past century it has been on the center stage of world history. This book clearly explains why -- why Israel is so central to Judaism, how the modern State of Israel arose, and why Israel has fought so many wars with its neighbors and found peace to be so elusive.
