How Are You COPING?
Coping:
The Many Faces of Love and Care
I saw the need for this book. People around me are caregivers. Their lives are rarely easy, but they COPE. Personality plays a role, and reality reigns.
Read twelve different short stories about caregivers and a quick novella about a long-distance caregiver. Think about the man who runs away on his motorized vehicle. See how the neglected daughter cared for her mother with care and compassion.
The book cover shows that there is a rainbow, and you are not alone. How did they do it? Learn from their experiences. Look for the rainbows.
This book is not a medical book, but twelve true stories about men and women who cared about their relatives and friends with love and understanding.

New 4 You!
This month, I happened to think about a Halloween party at my house at least ten years ago, when I lived in Sachse, Texas, near Dallas. In fact, we had Halloween parties at our house for a few years. The group worked together. The men and women had duties: one made chili, another brought buns for the hot dogs, and another brought chairs to accommodate the group, which might have numbered twenty-five of us. Someone purchased the decorations and found time to make their own costumes.
The parties, to say the least, were clever, full of joy, and friendships. We had photos from the parties, didn’t we? Why not write about the surprising results?
