Stories of Silent Sacrifice: A Tribute to America's Informal Caregivers

Rosemary has written a thoughtful and fascinating book that imparts stories from caregivers who have dedicated their lives to taking care of loved ones. They are personal stories told with love, all the while depicting the difficulties, and obstacles that come with caregiving. Anyone who is a caregiver, whether informal or professional in a healthcare profession, or someone who is receiving care, will enjoy and learn from these stories and Rosemary’s remarkable reflections on the narrative and aspects of caregiving.Being a caregiver most of my life, I truly appreciate Rosemary bringing these stories to all of us who may have struggled at times, found joy at times and who know they still love being a caregiver.

Dr. Henrich has written a heartfelt, touching and accurate account of the lives of informal careful. Her words give these people a beautiful voice that truly resonates with their journey. At times her words were so descriptive and raw, it felt as though I was there with her, feeling what she felt. This book is truly a tribute to informal caregivers.

Its true when she writes the word "savor" because once I was done with the book, I was ready for more. I hope that she finds time to let us learn the personal side of many more! Thank you for recognizing the sacrifice that these people have made and continue too. To understand why they made the choices they did and to give these unsung heroes a voice of what they go through, I found so interesting.

Never realized how difficult this was.
