Diane Ackerman Quotes

A Caregiver Is Changed By The Culture Of Illness, Just As One Is Changed By The Dynamic Era In Which One Lives. For One Thing, I Don't Have As Much Time In Conversation With Myself, And I Feel The Loss. Certainly I Worry More About His Death, And Mine Too, Since I;m So Much A Part Of The Evolving Saga Of His Health, Which I Have To Monitor Every Day. But I've Grown Stronger In Every Aspect Of My Life. In Small Ways: Speaking More Directly With People. In Large Ways: Discovering I Can Handle Adversity And Potential Loss And Yet Keep Going. I've A Better Idea Of My Strength. I Feel Like I've Been Tested, Like A Willow Whipped Around Violently In A Hurricane, But Still Stranding, Its Roots Strong Enough To Hold. [p. 301]
