THE CAREGIVING WIFE'S HANDBOOK aims to help women get through their husbands' illness and death with compassion, emotionally whole and without regret by helping them communicate clearly - and in steps - about issues affecting this unique caring relationship.
Without specific direction, many women find themselves over the top with stress as their lives change radically. As a qualified medical psychotherapist and primary carer, Diana Denholm recognised the need for a step-by-step process to help women communicate with their husbands to avoid irreparable damage and regret. You will learn:
·To ask questions you may not realise you need to ask
·What you should and shouldn't discuss with your husband
·What to do if your husband won't talk
·How to deal with his family
You will also learn survival tips from the case histories of other carers. Their experiences will help you:
·Choose roles you should take and those you should avoid
·Understand what is "normal" in what you're experiencing and
feeling
·Take care of yourself so you can survive and even have fun
THE CAREGIVING WIFE'S HANDBOOK will give you the tools and support needed to get through your husbands' illness and death with compassion, emotionally whole and without regret.
