Life's Final Battle: Raging Against Immobility

Old age happens whether you like it or not.

Your final years have arrived, and you must deal with it. You wish that these years had never come to you. You wish you could go back in time. You're powerless to make such wishes come true. Will you passively surrender to failing balance and strength, like a Stubborn Mule, or a Denying Ostrich, and bury your head in the sand? Or will you fight like a Raging Lion against immobility and dependence.

This is life's final battle. Is your freedom precious to you? If so, you must do something to help yourself, and you must do it before it's too late!

Drawing upon more than thirty years of experience as a Physical Therapist, Edwards empowers seniors--and those who love them--to take control of, and responsibility for, their own independence. His program is easy, pain-free, requires a minimum time investment...and it works!

This book is essential for any senior who desires to live autonomously and avoid moving to a nursing home or assisted living facility. It is a critical resource for those who love and care for those seniors. And it is a valuable guide for therapists who are frustrated with marginal results with their senior clients.

Born in Chicago and raised in Oregon, J. K. Edwards is a graduate of the Georgia State University School of Physical Therapy. His practice has focused on the issues surrounding the senior citizens of Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, New York City, and Texas in settings ranging from private practice, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and private homes. In addition to a therapy career, Edwards is an ordained pastor and has led multiple mission trips into the Copper Canyon of Mexico. He enjoys staving off the effects of aging in his own life by working out in the gym and hiking the Rocky Mountains.
