One of my not-so-secret secrets about literally surviving Sue?
Finding every resource I could – friends, family, new acquaintances – who had input and insight to share. Even better? Finding whole-hearted folks who understood the power of humor to keep me aloft.
Of all the workshops I offer, “Navigating Elder Care with Humor & Grace” is the one I enjoy the most and I get to do it again – soon!
The fine folks at the Wauconda Public Library invited me to present on Thursday, June 19 and registration will open in two weeks. Here are the details:

In this session I share the buoyancy I gained by connecting with others during my caregiving journey with my mom, Sue. Valuable lessons – applicable – still – in my role as guardian and advocate for my disabled sister, Lisa.
Swapping ideas and discoveries, leaning into newfound friends – who’ve either traveled the same path – or are in the midst of it is invaluable. It’s the reason why I love this program so much; the community building which naturally occurs when we come together and connect about caregiving challenges.
If you haven’t read “Surviving Sue” and want to learn more, visit these posts or my website. Eckhartz Press is the exclusive publisher of the paperback, and the eBook can be found on Amazon.
Support from readers means the world to me. Thank you so much – and if you’re in the Chicago area, I’d love to see you next month at the library!
