Overview
After, Mark asked his mother, āDo you trust me?ā She whispered, āYes.ā āDo you understand I will do everything in my power to keep you healthy and safe?ā She smiled and nodded. āThat means Iām in charge, and that means now you must obey me.ā Her mood shifted in an instant. She looked him dead in the eye, then puckered up her lips. He wasnāt sure if this was a sign of surrender or one wishing him luck. He kissed her and hoped for the best.
The parent/child role reversal may not have been unique to Mark, but how he dealt with it was. One day, hoping to make Genevieveās time on the commode a tad more pleasant, he offered her a cup of her favorite beverage. It was a hit, and a cup of tea on the commode became a staple on the morning menu, and the clear choice for the title of this intimate, funny, and heartwarming memoir of how eldercare can be done.
A Cup of Tea on the Commode chronicles Markās multitasking adventures of filling his motherās last years with love, laughter, and joy. Though not always successful, he came pretty damn close.
