William Wood

William had led a nomadic life until retirement, when he gradually found himself as a full-time carer of two ailing nonagenarians. He became trapped 24/7 in the parental home in Kent, trying to learn how to take care of a physically and emotionally vulnerable but demanding couple. Putting his fiction writing on hold, he began to record four years of challenge, despair and, sometimes, humour. Since writing this book, William has moved to Cumbria and a new life. He is currently back at work on his fiction and catching up on friends in France, Spain and Norway.
