In the early 1900s Woody grew up running barefoot in the lush valleys of Territorial Hawaii. From camping at Kailua Beach with his buddies to raising his family, he’s immersed in the dynamic changes of the Paradise of the Pacific. As he approaches ninety he insists he’s too busy to die. A tale told within tales with photos of Old Hawaii, signature dishes, and unforgettable dreams, Pam Chun’s lyrical memoir of her father describes their bond across time and distance. He wails at aging. She’s frustrated by caring for him from 3,000 miles away, relatives who don’t agree on his care, don’t approve of her, and issues she didn’t think she’d face.
Includes family photos never before published and signature recipes.
Includes 10 Things I learned about Distance Caregiving
Includes Nation-wide Caregiving Resources and specialized Hawaii resources.

The Seagull Gardener My Father Last Odyssey edition by Pam Chun Health Fitness Dieting eBooks Reviews
What a wonderful tribute to her father from a loving daughter. I hope I honor my father as well as she.
The Seagull's Gardener is a compelling memoir of the author's tender, long distant care-taking relationship with her father as she witnesses his end-of-life decline. Riches of Hawaiian feasts, recipes, fauna, memories, folklore, dreams and ghosts flesh out the moving story. Woody is the shining star of this memoir, brought to life by his daughter's loving and very capable hands.
Picture having an elderly parent and a close relative who does not share your ideas for how that parent should be cared for - even though you are directly following your parent's wishes. Add to that a distance of some 2,400 miles between you and your parent. And that you have a full-time job. And your spouse or significant other is experiencing health issues. And throw in any other number of normal variables that life throws in. Pam does an admirable job of sharing her journey of heartbreak and steadfast love for her father and for family tradition.
If you can identify with even one or two of these challenges, this book is required reading.
Pam also provides a thoughtful selection of resources for long-distance caregivers based on her personal experiences.
