On July 29, Dick Cavett will lead areading of In the Car with Blossom and Len - A Benefit for National Alzheimer's Association. Throughout their formative years, Holly and Fern's parents, Blossom and Len, were wildly unpredictable, endearingly neurotic, and often blatantly dysfunctional. Now that they are in their eighties, they are facing the biggest emotional and financial crisis of their lives. This is a story of what can happen in our own homes.
