ISBN: 9780807079645.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy Fathers Keeper is the moving story of Jonathan Silin, a gay man in midlife who learned to care for his elderly parents as a series of life-threatening illnesses forced them to make the difficult transition from being independent to being reliant on their son. Their new needs and unrelenting demands brought parents and child into intimate daily contact and radically transformed what had been a distant and emotionally fraught relationship.\n\nMy Fathers Keeper chronicles the ways in which the ideas and skills Silin acquired as an early childhood educator, a specialist in life span development, and a compassionate witness to the devastation of the HIV\/AIDS crisis came together with his interest in human psychology to deeply inform his thinking about the dramatic changes in his familys life and increasingly influence his role as his fathers (and mothers) keeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Beacon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45116108177461,"sku":"ByrdShop_0807079642","price":58.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780807079645_08bbffb5-0389-4357-91b1-e85dda8fe74e.jpg?v=1781326523","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/my-fathers-keeper-the-story-of-a-gay-son-and-his-aging-parents-9780807079645","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
