From Chapter 2: Did you ever notice that when you're preparing to take off in an airplane and the flight attendant is explaining the various emergency procedures, he/she always reminds you to put your oxygen mask on first, before you assist others? The same holds true when deciding the priority between your parents and your own family. The truth is, your life comes first. That's not inconsiderate, it's not insensitive, and it's not selfish. It's simply the truth! Your life must be working in order for you to effectively care for your aging parents.
