- **Event Description**: Join author Marc Sapir as he reads and signs copies of I'll Fly Away: Stories of Amazing Disabled Elders at Pegasus Books (2349 Shattuck Ave, Berkeley, CA). 

This collection of stories about local senior citizens who are empowered to grow old on their own terms by their families and caregivers will make you laugh and cry, while also encouraging us all to be as courageous as these elders and to fight for ourselves and our communities. 

Drawing from his experiences at the Center for Elders' Independence in Oakland, CA, Sapir introduces readers to 40 fascinating people including Gus, a lifelong wanderer who loves to sing Gospel and sneak out of his residence, or Ara Belle, a woman of faith who refused medical interventions at the end of life, dying on Easter as she planned. From a couple’s summer drive across the Arizona desert to a family’s struggle with mental illness in a caregiver to patients’ romantic escapades, each tale offers a unique glimpse into the resilience of individuals facing profound transitions and prompts questions about our collective responsibility to our elders.
