From the Book jacket:
"There are only four kinds of people in the world-those who have been caregivers, those who currently are caregivers, those who will be caregivers and those who will need caregivers. .. These stories soothe and nourish family members and professionals devoting themselves to the care of those who are ill or disabled. "
-Rosalynn Carter
