Synopsis

Forgotten People is a personal, eye-opening, compassionate look at convalescent homes. The author shares his experience in placing his mother in a home and shares the humor, joy, and bitterness of the other residents in the same home during their last days, weeks, months, or years on earth. He encourages readers to spend as much time as possible with the elderly because they may have little time left. We can learn a lot from these interesting, talented, and passionate people.
