    About this ebook

    Caregiver's Survival Guide is based on Dr. Robert Yonover's personal experiences. While struggling to become a successful scientist and inventor, he also was primary caregiver for his paralyzed wife for more than twenty years and raised their two children. Yonover takes you into the throes of his life as a caregiver, husband, and father, offering guidance and hope through his story. He provides advice on:

  • Dealing with heavy news
  • Handling day-to-day challenges
  • Holding on to the foundation of your relationship
  • Taking stock of finances
  • Adapting and enjoying life
  • Staying sane
  • Maintaining a social life
  • Fighting for your rights

    Through Caregiver's Survival Guide, Dr. Yonover will equip other caregivers who face similar physical, mental, social, and financial challenges with tips and guidelines from his own experiences and other experts to help make their situation survivable.
