FROM THE EDITOR'S PEN /
Daddy Dearest
/
Editorial List
Last week, I asked for stories regarding male caregiving/caregivers.
As usual, the responses were fast and forthcoming,
thoughtful and honest, covering all ends of the caregiving
spectrum. More than anything else, the responses confirmed
that there are no stereotypical caregivers nor stereotypical
caregiving stories—just people doing their darndest to make
sure that their loved ones get the care they need.
