When the person you married needs hospice, you become a caregiver and stay a husband or wife at the same time. You manage medications and appointments while grieving the life you planned together, often with very little sleep and very little help.
This book speaks to husbands, wives, and life partners with honesty and tenderness. It covers the practical side of hospice care and the parts few books mention: loneliness, exhaustion, intimacy, and how to keep being married until the very end.
