At forty-four, Leah Komaiko was not aging graciously. Her generation expected to stay forever young, but she felt old and empty inside. Nothing she thought of trying (plastic surgery, a vacation, a new husband) could make her feel young again. Then she met Adele -- a woman who never expected to be ninety-four -- alone, forgotten, and living in a nursing home. This inspiring memoir takes us into a world most hope never to enter and few dare to go -- the nursing home -- as Adele helps Leah to see the truth about growing old.
