Amid the many obstacles she and her husband, Michael, face after his diagnosis with a chronic illness, Suzanne Marriott’s love for him grows—creating a bond even death cannot sever—and she learns to be a compassionate caregiver for him and, ultimately, for herself. Candid and illuminating, Marriott’s story of spiritual and psychological growth through caregiving will inspire other caregivers and appeal to anyone facing a life-changing crisis.
Transformative Caregiving
There can be no transforming of darkness into light and of apathy into movement without emotion. ~ Carl Jung
I view caregiving as a transformative journey for both caregiver and loved one.
This website provides a space to explore avenues of growth and adaptation as we find our way on our transformative journey.
My theme is transformation. Transformation means change, but it means a special kind of change to me, one accompanied by intense emotions. Some of these emotions may feel overwhelming at times, yet the insights that follow the darkness can illuminate hidden inner resources, help us develop competency in areas previously unimagined, and expand our love and compassion for self and others.
I hope you will find this website meaningful as you travel on your own transformative journey.
Thank you for joining me.
Suzanne
