Caregivers. Beyond tired, beyond stressed, they hunger for a glimmer of hope. You can see it in their eyes and hear it in their voices. They are stretched way too thin and panic simmers just under the surface. What if the next thing to go wrong makes them snap? With Each Passing Moment, a devotional memoir, offers hope and encouragement for weary caregivers. The short chapters are arranged alphabetically by emotional, physical, and spiritual needs that caregivers face daily.

Hopelessly in love with the guy she married almost 50 years ago, Shirley Leonard has recently experienced a new kind of love affair: her first book. The title, With Each Passing Moment, (Help and Hope for Caregivers), comes from a line in an old hymn. Those lyrics helped her survive her long-distance-caregiving years as she juggled roles as pastor's wife, mom, and daughter. She loves to share the lessons she learned in those years with others who are on that road now.
Taking care of others sometimes is hard and sometimes its rewarding. Leonard wants to put your mind at ease with this read. We are not perfect and sometimes we need to refuel.
I would anything to have my parents still with me to take care of.
Leonard gives you a handbook ,guidebook if you will to help you with our everyday care.
I call this book inspiring and encouraging just for caregivers.

Like you Mary, I wish that my parents were still here with me today. I would gladly take care of them. I have the utmost respect for people who are caregivers. This sounds like a book that any caregiver would benefit from. Thank you for this review!
