Valentine’s Day for Caregivers: When You’re Carrying the Love Alone

In this special Valentine's Day episode of Hope for the Caregiver, I share what it means to carry love when the person you cherish can no longer carry it back in the same way. I talk about relaunching our local caregiver support group after a long pause, about sitting alone in an empty room before anyone showed up, and why caregivers need a place where they are understood. I reflect on decorating Gracie's hospital bed through one holiday after another, and why sometimes it's okay to buy your own Valentine's card as a tribute to a love that is still very real. I also address the shallow theology that collapses under the weight of suffering and remind fellow caregivers that our hope must be anchored in Scripture, not sentiment. I close by singing "I Will Sing of My Redeemer," because even when our hearts are breaking, we can still sing — and that song carries us.
