A very close look at a group of women who help each other out as they get older and more fragile, facing hiccups in their lives. The fall of one of their members, her hospitalisation, the visits to cheer her up have to be scheduled. Not all are willing to be put on a roster and those that do are stretched to the maximum. The degree of care from baking cookies to visits to the sick are shown by these members and they are lucky to have someone who cares.
A very warm novel about the power of befriending and nurturing.

Sounds like a very touching book. We all need good friends like that.
