Books, Manuscripts
In We Need to Talk About Ageing, Melissa encourages us to understand that while getting older is inevitable, our journeys don't need to be overwhelming, or clouded with uncertainty or confusion. She provides expert information on what to expect as you get older, what's 'normal', how to identify symptoms of common medical and psychiatric conditions in later life, and, most importantly, what you can do and where to go for help. Melissa shares practical, actionable strategies, tips and discussion prompts, so you are equipped to have the big conversations about ageing, to maintain connection, to find your way through the aged-care maze, to make informed, values-aligned decisions and so much more. We Need to Talk About Ageing is a comprehensive guide that will empower your family to plan for the future, experience greater meaning, joy and connection, and navigate the ageing journey with confidence and grace.
