ABOUT THE BOOK:
MY THOUGHTS:
While I am not a caregiver I did appreciate how supportive this book can be. My aunt was a caregiver for my great grandma for about ten years and I know it was hard for her, as she really was alone in it. I am sure I will even end up as a caregiver for someone in my family as I am the oldest of five and close to my family (and my husband’s.) This book is not just a book of stories but really a book to give encouragement, emotional support and guidance. It would be a great gift for any caregiver!
