Description:
Being a carer is not unlike being an interpreter. The task is to listen intently, to catch not only the words but the spirit of the message, and then to immediately pass that on. So too the carer, who is required to listen, to catch the spirit of what is needed, and then to set about to have those needs met.
Fraying chronicles a mother's and a daughter's journey through memory loss and the medical maze. Michele Gierck finds herself suddenly thrust into the role of primary carer, with no map to navigate the world of aged care and medical bureaucracy.
The relationship between the spirited, determined 88-year-old protagonist – who refuses to passively accept medical pronouncements – and her daughter is at times difficult, yet always respectful and loving, warm and upbeat. Together they must develop practical coping strategies, draw on a lifetime with each other and hold onto their sense of humour.
Authentic and evocative, Fraying will resonate with the tens of thousands of readers living through this experience themselves. Michele Gierck offers wisdom and very practical advice about two of the certainties of life – change and loss.

Great toy
Size: Large, Style: Crinkle Fry
This high-quality toy has been thoroughly enjoyed by my dogs. Its appropriate size and durability ensure its safety, even for my largest chewers. The toy’s design facilitates easy chewing, making it an excellent value for money. Notably, it surpasses the quality of other brands in my experience. Furthermore, the toy contributes to maintaining healthy and clean teeth, resulting in improved breath.

Great for strong chewers!
Size: Large, Style: Crinkle Fry
My puppy LOVES to chew this! It’s a great distraction from sticks outside and trying to chew other hard items. It’s not messy, since it’s hard and she can’t break pieces off. It’s nicer than bully stick since it has no smell. It keeps her busy!
It is heavy so it’s not ideal for a smaller dog. If your dog is a strong chewer or is teething, this is perfect!

Nearly indestructible
Size: Medium, Style: Pork Chomp, Size: Medium, Style: Pork Chomp
My dog will chew this until it’s tiny but it will take him months. These are the best toys for a dog that can chew through anything.
