Resilient Caregivers
I wrote “Coaching for Caregivers” to help you and your loved ones have a better experience than I did while taking care of my parents and mother-in-law.
My aim is to help you to sustain yourself by reaching out for the love and support you, your loved ones, and your other family members need.
I will show you how to reach out without sacrificing your family’s privacy and in a way that does not become just another item on your to-do list.

The surgery had involved two separate teams of surgeons – throat and esophageal – and took 16 hours in the OR. The surgery was a “success” – they had gotten all the malignancy out. Given that it was over 30 years ago, if my memory serves me on this, they also showed me proof of what they had taken out. I would have preferred to have simply taken their word for it!
