Caring For Us

When you fall in love and marry, the last thing you imagine is your spouse being diagnosed with a long term debilitating illness. Suddenly you become a caregiver, and life as you planned it changes dramatically. What started as a loving relationship can become isolating and stressful, and resentment can sometimes creep in. But it doesn't have to be a devastating blow to your relationship. It is important to take positive steps to face the difficulties together and to keep joy and happiness part of every day, so you can live productive and fulfilling lives despite the adversity. In this heart-wrenching and heart-warming self-help memoir, Kathy Krach gives a realistic look at being a caregiver for her spouse with MS. It chronicles the path of their marriage prior to and through his diagnosis. She gives a poignant account of her struggles with her relationship with Christ, as well the unique challenges she and her husband faced as this terrible disease affected their lives. Their story is about the long haul of dealing with chronic illness and keeping a happy marriage together. Kathy hopes hearing their journey will give readers hope, encouragement, and a renewed sense of excitement about life, even if living every day with a debilitating illness.
