My caregiver's job that I have described in this book, unlike my career, does not have written rules on what to do, doesn't follow normal protocols on negotiating with someone, or affords you a satisfactory written agreement. There are no "regular" work hours, no vacation or holiday time off and no promotions. It's a primer on love, devotion, selflessness and strength which most of us must find within ourselves somehow, to carry on until the inevitable end. Sharing our struggle can only make us stronger.
