BRAND NEW Bk w/ poss. subtle ding/s ('Read More' just below gives details). 100% Satis. Guaranteed! Fast Shipping. DETAILS: This book is brand new returned from a bookstore with ... clean, crisp pages. In fact, typically, it still has that wonderful new book smell, but note there may be a small imperfection such as a little cover crease or light scuffing or a store sticker on back. Often there is no ding or the ding is so small you can still give it as a gift. We just cannot promise it is gift quality every time, as we tend to have multiple copies and we cannot catalog and describe each ding (or lack thereof). ALSO PLS NOTE SERVICE MATTERS: We stand by our name and offer an iron-clad 100% satisfaction guarantee. We ship right away, respond quickly to inquiries, and treat our customers like we want to be treated: politely, friendly and eager to please! Read more Show Less

    Life-saving guide book!

    This book is essential for anyone considering moving into a continuing care retirement community. It saved my husband and me from falling into pitfalls that would have been disastous for us. The book, which is clearly written in an engaging manner, tells everything you'll need to know before making the all-important decision that will last the rest of your life. My husband and I followed the guidelines given in the book and are the happiest we have ever been. Thank you Bernice Hunt for this fabulous book.

    This is a must-have!

    This is a must-have book for anyone looking at options for retirement living, as it covers all the aspects of continuing-care facilities and advises things to look for that you may never have thought of. It¿s a practical, informative guide, written in a lighthearted, readable style. It is also a personal account of the author¿s own search for a CCRC that resonated with me because it addressed so many of the questions, concerns and fears that have been keeping me from moving forward in my retirement decision-making. This guide has laid out a course for me to follow and has given me the impetus to get started. I strongly recommend it!
