This book is for the person watching over a loved one from far away, for families taking turns checking in, or for Mom herself. Caring for someone as they age is often a collection of small moments and subtle changes - changes that can gradually begin to feel “normal.” How Is Mom Doing? gives everyone who spends time with her one calm, consistent place to record what they noticed. Over time, those small observations can reveal a meaningful pattern instead of quietly slipping by. The book keeps important information together: the people involved in her care, her medications, and the concerns or symptoms that may come and go. A few thoughtful questions are asked and answered in the same simple way each time, no matter who is holding the pen. Week by week, a clearer picture begins to emerge - one that can be especially helpful when a doctor asks, “When did this begin?” Inside: a full year of visits - 64 one-page check-ins, eight simple 1-to-10 ratings plus two you name yourself, yes/no observations, a blood pressure log, twelve monthly calendars showing who visited and what changed, and trend graphs that turn a year of visits into a picture you can see at a glance. Coil-bound so it lies flat on the table while you write. The questions were researched and developed by Michael Depenbusch, MD, to focus on the changes that truly matter, using plain language that anyone can understand and answer. For Mom, for Dad, or for anyone who could benefit from a caring and attentive eye. It is not a medical record. It is a steady, loving way to keep watch - and to make sure the little things are not forgotten.
