In this powerful true story the author interviews her husband as they journey together through his illness. In each chapter she offers her experiences in caring for her husband and his responses to his illness and her care.Each chapter of the book is introduced by Scripture and focuses on the author's upbeat but realistic sharing of the challenges of a caregiver and care receiver and the faithful ways they met those challenges. Caregiver tips as well as journaling starters are included in each chapter. In addition to serving the needs of caregivers and care receivers, this is a helpful gift for use by counselors and pastors.
