As caregivers, we know the journey is tough. We're used to that.
But it doesn't have to be crazy!
Yet the isolation of caregivers can take us down dangerous paths. HOPE FOR THE CAREGIVER is committed to punching through that isolation and giving caregivers a fighting chance against the craziness that can overtake us.
This clip identifies what a path to safety looks like for caregivers. Share it with your social media group, email list, pastor, and anyone else who either serves as a caregiver ...or knows a caregiver.

"We caregivers are often one broken leg away from this thing turning into a Greek Tragedy."
Life insurance is a big part of our journey as caregivers, but what about if something happens to us that compromises our ability to serve as caregivers? Can we make that life insurance policy work for us while we serve as caregivers?
Jerry Garrett (855)-422-1522 called the show to discuss AFFORDABLE options for caregivers to provide a bit of extra peace of mind as we journey down the often hazardous path of caregiving.

Just what does the stress of 30+ years of caregiving do?
Sunday Apr 21, 2019
Sunday Apr 21, 2019
As a caregiver for more than 30 years through an ongoing medical nightmare, I can confidently state that I'm familiar with stress.
But what does that relentless stress do the human body? We've discussed Gracie's dramatic recovery using natural products, but what about mine. Today, Mark Harris joined me to talk about MY health. Mark is part of a group that has worked with Gracie and me for two years. Using myself as a guinea pig, I wanted to see if the products they recommended really work.
Gracie and I have both witness ( and continue to see) significant results for both of us. No miracle drugs, no overnight fix, but a steady increase of healthiness that continues through our brutal journey.
Listen to my conversation with Mark ...and then check out more at: AHealthierLifeForYou.com
Gracie and I just share what we're seeing in our lives. We live with EXTREME challenges, and we need help healing what decades have caused for both of us.
How about you? How are you feeling? How many medications are you taking? What did your last physical reveal?
