Description
Caregiving can be lonely, no matter what stage you’re at. Millions of people worldwide struggle with caring for loved ones while still trying to care for themselves. You don’t need to learn about caregiving all on your own. In Caregiving Insights, author Lise Leblanc has compiled brief stories and lessons from experts in the field and people just like you who have been caregivers themselves.
Focusing on what other caregivers have learned, from setting boundaries and self care to being vulnerable and taking time to listen, the short stories in Caregiving Insights offer gentle advice from a trusted friend who has been there. Each story shines a light on just one facet of the process, so you can return to this book when your story begins to coincide.
This book is edited by Lise Leblanc and features stories by the following: Lina Miranda, Amanda Gagne, Penny Tremblay, Lise Leblanc, Karen Hourtovenko, Bonnie Mulvihill, Wendy Hill, Sandi Emdin, Carole Tessier, Lynne Golding, Kimberley Rivando-Robb, Theresa Albert, and Caroline Tapp-Macdougall.

This book could easily be called Chicken Soup for the Caregiver's Soul. It's fluffier than I was hoping for, though I still learned from it. A collection of essays from people who have experienced different phases of care giving and receiving, all the writing has a gentle, positive tone. It's full of personal anecdotes and reflections. And while the blurb describes that clearly, I was still looking for some hard and fast Do's and Don'ts, because my own journey as a caregiver has been a rollercoaster. After reading this book, I realized my journey is similar to others' and it's going to be unique because my family and I are unique, with our own specific set of challenges. I recommend this book for caregivers looking for support and insight, and I'll definitely look into the author's other books.

This is really good. Lots of helpful perspectives on many relevant topics related to caregiving. Not every contributor will click for every reader (not should it), but I think most will. There is a lot of helpful info and advice and wisdom here. Recommended.
Thanks very much for the review copy!!
