Spiritual Formation Catalyst
Working to help people respond to the Spirit's call in the midst
of their everyday lives so that they may experience what Jesus describes as,
"life to the full."
As a caregiver, I live in two realities- one of wanting my husband to live forever but also understanding he may not.
As a caregiver, I am doing everything possible to help my husband live a long life despite his cancer.
A second reality is that my husband could die of cancer, and I could be alone.
I must live in the possibility of both realities, which at times leads to feelings of guilt.
Living with a terminal illness can feel complicated for everyone involved.
