RT Journal A1 Cannuscio CC T1 LEssons in elder care JF JAMA JO JAMA YR 2012 FD January 18 VO 307 IS 3 SP 263 OP 264 DO 10.1001/jama.2011.2004 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/jama.2011.2004 AB My mother and I rolled with it, listening to Nana and asking her questions about this new and beautiful place.
