Description:
The Ambivalent Daughter: Memoir of a Conflicted Caregiver, is the compelling story of a mother and daughter struggling to adjust after the mother has a severe stroke. Suddenly Bethanie is faced with the need to assume responsibility for the care of her octogenarian mother who has become completely disabled. The two strong, independent women have never gotten along which complicates matters. Gertrude needs total care and moves to a nursing home near her daughter. Bethanie is a professor who is dedicated to her career and her husband. Gertrude is angry and despondent about how her life has turned out. She finds she has lost all her independence in the residential setting where everything is lockstep. Bethanie visits her mother daily to keep her spirits up and oversee her care. She observes nursing home practices that do not serve the best interests of her mother and becomes a fervent advocate for changes in the care her mother receives. She insists that her mother's emotional needs be addressed and as well as her medical ones and that more individualization of care be implemented. Through her reflections on the past, the reader gains insight into the reasons for her ambivalence. She feels increasingly torn between the needs of her mother, her husband, and her career and begins to show signs of stress and depression. Her only sibling lives in Canada, and she feels frustrated that she cannot be more involved in her mother's care causing dissension between the sisters. Bethanie's husband is supportive, but Bethanie feels guilty about how much time has been taken from their relationship by her mother's needs. The action takes place over one y

Accurate
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size
Just place it on the counter, press the power button, and you’re ready to weigh ingredients instantly. The digital display is clear and easy to read, and switching between grams and ounces is fast and intuitive which makes it great whether I’m following recipes or tracking portions for meal planning.
The weighing platform is spacious enough to fit bowls, plates, or containers and the scale is impressively accurate even with small amounts like spices or coffee grounds. I’ve used it for baking precise measurements, prepping meal portions for a keto plan, and tracking food for weight‑loss goals, and it performs consistently every time.
It also has useful features like a tare function which lets you subtract the weight of your container so you only measure what matters. The scale feels sturdy and well‑made yet still lightweight and easy to store when not in use.
Overall this Etekcity food scale is a fantastic value and a must‑have for anyone serious about cooking, baking, or healthy living. I’ll definitely be using it for years and would buy it again without hesitation.

Great Kitchen Purchase
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size, Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size
I didn’t realize how much I needed a kitchen scale until I got this. It’s really accurate and makes cooking (especially baking) so much easier and more consistent.
The tare function is a game changer—you can zero out the bowl and keep adding ingredients without extra measuring cups. It’s also easy to switch between grams and ounces, which is great for following different recipes. Most digital scales measure very precisely, often down to about 1 gram, which makes a big difference for accuracy.
It’s compact, easy to clean, and doesn’t take up much space on the counter. Overall, such a simple tool but makes a big difference—definitely worth having in any kitchen.

Great little scale!
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size
Love this little guy! It's small I use it for all my meals. When in a rush I can just toss it in my lunch box and use it at work. Super convenient. It sits on my counter no bigger than a side plate. Worth the money!

Food scale
Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size, Color: Stainless Steel, Size: Medium Size
This product is worth the price. The only thing is that it kind of doesn’t work sometimes when you are trying to switch the unit and you might have to double click (as shown in my video) other than that the product works perfect for measuring my food and even my liquids. It’s the perfect size not too big and bulky but it also isn’t that small. As you can see in my picture it’s small enough to fit in my drawer (I don’t like to leave it on my counter) it’s a tiny bit bigger than an Alexa.i also like that the price isn’t to high . I would definitely recommend this product! It’s a sturdy product it doesn’t move when you’re putting any items on it. It’s easy to clean off as well. Another thing is it takes batteries ( it takes AAA batteries, just 2 of them) and I liked how it came with batteries inside of them already .
