Karen Sebastian has been my friend since we were young mothers and I have witnessed her life as she moved graciously through its many stages. I have known her in the years when she served as the caregiver for aging parents, and then as she cared for her beloved husband, Bill, during his long battle with muscular dystrophy. Karen truly is the woman who can come alongside any caregiver, offering wisdom and advice and even refreshing moments of joyful hope.

Once again, Karen, provides practical wisdom and insights that help a caregiver or family member navigate practical and heart challenges in caring for a loved one. The strength of her stories come from one who doesn’t speak from a lofty place but rather from having lived in the daily trenches. She will inspire you to do the same. As one of many, I watched her demonstrate dignified care that created a holy culture of honor and hope. May our generation raise the standard for loving care of the most important ones in our lives.

Karen Sebastian’s book, The Power of Hope for Caregivers: Honor the Ride, is a much-needed addition to our lives as caregivers. From her raw and authentic perspective as a caregiver for her own husband, she speaks from a voice of “knowing” and “living” through the waves of joy and grief on a daily basis. Her powerful words and supportive insights feed and nurture our hearts as we walk this challenging, yet honorable road. I have been a caregiver for two elderly parents in our own home until they passed. It is a love journey and having Karen’s wisdom and hope for those experiencing the “ride” even more worthwhile.
