Caregiver Book just Released

Have you been required to take on the immediate and daunting responsibility of care giving for a family member, or know someone who has?

The Other Survivor: Head Injury from a Wife's Perspective has just been released. This book offers hope and inspiration to help alleviate the family's anxiety, frustration and "caregiver burnout."

"This very personal report of a shattering biographic milestone will be a valuable help to family members and loved ones as well as medical staff and self-help groups as it demonstrates the need for more in-hospital support given by social workers, priests, doctors and the infirm and the families: the other survivors."
Doctor Deirdre Cooper-Mahkorn: Neurologist


"The chapters of this book reveal the source of Barbara's strength not only to survive but to become a loving caregiver.
In these pages she shares her insights and experiences and faith with readers who themselves have encountered similar challenges or know someone who has. I am certain those readers will find Barbara's thoughts both helpful and encouraging."
Eugene J. Cooper, Dr., Theology

"This must read for caregiver families offers tremendous hope and inspiration for all caregivers who may be struggling with the lack of help and information available to them. This insightful and inspirational book comes from one who knows, because she has been there herself as a caregiver to a brain injured husband."
Donna-Marie O'Boyle, Author
