40 - The Sudden Caregiver - Interview with Karen Warner Schueller

When we commit to our partner for the long term, we are often caught up in the excitement of finding our life-long love. The joy of coming together overshadows the gravity of what commitment means. Becoming life partners is an agreement that you will be together throughout your lifespan. That you will support one another in growth and the inevitable ups and downs of life, aging with your partner - physically, cognitively, spiritually, and emotionally.

This episode of Relationship Renovation is an interview with Karen Warner Schueler, author of The Sudden Caregiver. The Sudden Caregiver is "a roadmap for resilient caregiving." Karen became a sudden caregiver when her late husband received a diagnosis out of the blue with stage IV cancer. Karen discusses the painful process of losing her husband early and her lessons throughout the experience.
