Care for the Caregiver

 

Winner of a Caregiver Friendly Award from Today's Caregiver magazine, Care for the Caregiver offers a range of ways you can take care of yourself as a caregiver.

 

While the safety of the person for whom you are caring is your first consideration, you MUST take care of yourself. You take care of you!™

"I just wanted to share how much Caregiving Can Make Life Crazy! meant to me. I carried your book and my Bible with me on retreat — a retreat I took because I was at a crossroads. Something had to change. My husband’s dementia had progressed rapidly, my elderly parents needed more and more care, I was still working full time, and my own health was beginning to suffer. I felt overwhelmed, exhausted, and unsure how I could keep going.

 

Your book felt like a lifeline. It offered both practical advice and real encouragement — like someone truly understood the chaos, heartbreak, and even the humor that comes with caregiving. Three and a half years into my caregiving journey as an only child and wife, I found myself near the top of your "How Crazy Are You?" quiz — and I was physically feeling it.

 

As I turned to scripture for strength, your words reminded me that I can do this — but only if I take care of myself too. Thank you for writing something that speaks so deeply to the hearts of caregivers. It certainly spoke to mine."

 

Warmly, Debra H.
