Workshop Update

June 20th, 2009

Thanks to all the folks who turned out for my free workshop, “Legal Issues for Caregivers” at the community bookstore Crazy Wisdom, here in Ann Arbor last month. ( www.crazywisdom.net ) Crazy Wisdom is a jewel of resources for everyone in southeastern Michigan. Over the years, Owners Bill Zirinsky and Ruth Shecker have shown  a deep appreciation for folks in the care giving role and in the “sandwich” generation—those individuals who are helping both the elder and youth generations simultaneously. Ruth and Bill  always have a wide selection of books and can order almost any publication you request.

The response was so positive that I’ll be repeating the free seminar, this fall—again at Crazy Wisdom.  I’ll be focusing on the needs and issues of caregivers, especially the boomers among us, with an emphasis on legal concerns. If you would like to reserve your spot at the workshop now, just email me at elizabeth@hurwitzlawoffices.com

Older and Wiser

It’s simply appropriate to begin this blog on today’s day, otherwise known as International Day of Older Persons. In celebration of everyone’s aging (yes, this applies to you - no matter how old you are this minute, you will be older in five minutes), take a look here. Your eyes can feast upon some great selections from Magnum Photos, featuring Martine Franck, Bruce Davidson, and George Rodger, in a collection called “Older and Wiser.”

And welcome to my website, devoted to the legal needs of the older and wiser.
