Comfort & Hope for the Weary Caregiver
November 13, 2025 | 12:00pm - 1:00pm CT
When the community focus is typically on the one who is ill or disabled, caregivers become hidden. Caregiving for a loved one is unchartered territory. In between doctor appointments and insurance issues, we discover emotions such as guilt, anxiety, confusion, and despair. In our vocation of caregiving, we can also find hope. This session will seek to make sense of the emotions and gifts of caregiving and equip caregivers with practical ways to navigate challenges.
Presented by: Kim Marxhausen, adjunct professor, writer, blogger, and speaker
