Connecting Caregivers

Life doesn't normally prepare us to become a loved one's caregiver. When it happens it's usually sudden--the diagnosis of an illness, age-related frailty, dementia--and life suddenly is anything but normal. And because we don't even know what we don't know, where do we turn for help or guidance? We feel lost, alone... Linda Burhans was just as unprepared when her mother's cancer diagnosis thrust her into the role of caregiver. That experience changed her own professional path. Today she's a leading caregiver advocate, author, and public speaker. She knows, firsthand, what you are going through. Connecting Caregivers--Answer to the Questions You Didn't Know You Needed to Ask, Burhans offers information, education, and inspiration from her own experience and from experts whose advice, practical tools, and personal stories will empower and guide you.
