Spousal Caregiving and Intimacy

Hi Folks!

Recently, one of our caregiving experts, and co-author of "Meditations for Caregivers", Dr. Barry Jacobs, was featured on the nationally sydicated Dr. Phil show, where he discussed how a spouse's role changes following a serious illness to their husband/wife.

You can watch the segment HERE.

If you've been a spousal caregiver, how did your role change? Did your emotions change for your loved one? Did intimacy wane? Did your marriage and love for one another get stronger or change for the worse?
