Description
“Unexpected Gifts” is a mash-up memoir / cautionary tale / love story. It is the narrative of the author's unexpected journey that transformed her from “caregiving is not in my wheelhouse” to exhausted caregiver making difficult decisions and eventually finding a path to personal growth. Drawing on years of emails, photographs and thousands of words in detailed notes she wrote for herself along the way, the author offers a brutally honest portrayal of her life as caregiver for her longtime partner as she developed dementia. The author believes that the more individual stories are shared, the richer and more nuanced our understanding of caregiving becomes. The earlier one realizes there is no one “right” way to walk the path of caregiving, the easier life is. In the end, then, this is a book about reliance.
