I highly recommend reading this booklet written by a very Godly woman. Using God’s word as her guide, she learned how to apply that in her situations and helped her to endure the years of being her dear husbands caretaker. Very touching reminder of the power in His Word.

Andy please tell Cherri she did a GREAT job on this book. I can relate to what she went through, my wife had dementia (Alh) for 7 years, 2 in hospital bed. I had to work so I could pay setters and our expenses. At 6 o’clock when I came in, it was my job to care for her until next morning at 7. Had sitter come in on Sunday morning so I could go to church.
What a GREAT GOD we have.

Great book provided by a Godly woman who depended on His Word, His Strength in His Word and His Guidance in His Word. Knew the husband and wife and they both should be an inspiration to all.
Our Awesome God led their lives and continues to do so.
