FROM PARTNER TO CARER

What happens to our relationships when our partners forget to love us back, when they can’t get up or talk, can’t use the toilet on their own or need 24-hour care? What happens when two lovers become carer and patient, when partners turn into dependents? How does this transformation affect the patients, their carers and their children?

Birgit Ehrenberg’s moving and insightful book follows the life story of several couples and relates the many challenges faced by those involved. Along the way, these remarkable stories show us that life and love sometimes follow extraordinary paths that can take us anywhere, including the best places in our lives.
