ADELAIDE BOOKS is proud to present the latest work by Bryden Soto: The Caregiver
“…The tug-of-war between generational needs can be overwhelming. Just the opposite can be said of the availability of support services and community resources. My story is not uncommon, but it is largely unshared, under reported – locked in the closet with other family skeletons.
My journaling became my therapy and the basis of my memoir, The Caregiver. Within its pages come to life the harsh realities of caring for aging parents, including the medical, psychological, financial, legal, and ethical challenges.
And I’m not alone. According to the Pew Research Center, nearly half of adults in their 40s and 50s have a parent age 65 or older, as well as their own children they are still raising. About a quarter of this sandwiched population assists their parents financially, and two-thirds or more are their parents’ emotional support system.”—Bryden Soto
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Calif., Bryden Soto has a bachelor’s degree in journalism from California State University Long Beach and a master’s in education from the University of Texas.

Bryden Soto, her husband, and crew of rescue dogs are at home in El Paso, Texas.
