------------------------------------------ Whether it's a grandparent, a parent, a sibling, a spouse, or anyone you consider to be "family"...Being a caregiver to someone who no longer can care for themselves is challenging. It's full of physical demands and emotional stresses...AND so many rewards. Family caregivers are unpaid and unsung heroes; this book is dedicated to them. With 22 family caregivers sharing their personal stories, these voices offer insights, inspiration, and a reality check about those ties that bind. This book was made possible thanks to a grant from The Picerne Family Foundation; proceeds from book sales go to charity. I am grateful and humbled to have spearheaded this effort...Paolina Milana, George Bailey and Me Meet the authors: Kay Anonsen
