RONA NOVICK: In caregiving, we are both free and tethered, lonely and together, focused on change and focused on preserving the past.
That’s what caregiving does. It is a powerful teacher. Its lessons are broad and lasting, about humanity, about human spirit and human frailty, about the people in our family we thought we knew. The most life-altering lessons caregiving offers, however, are those that teach us about ourselves.
