Testimonials:

"I loved every page. I find it helped me to reflect on my last few months with Tony in a different way. Lisa's thoughtful treatment of each situation encourages me to live in the moment more recognizing that every experience comes with eternal significance if we take the time to notice." - Cathy Witczak, Worldwide Marriage Encounter International Leader 2009-2014

"Through scripture and thought-provoking questions, Lisa has given us a guide to reflect on God's goodness in our most difficult, heart wrenching circumstances. Her devotional is a gift to caregivers, family members and anyone seeking solace as they give of themselves to serve another." - Janet Lozano, Co-Founder, Heart of the Father Ministries

"This is a heart-warming, gut-wrenching (in a good way), true life story that would touch all people. Caregivers can especially relate but death touches us all so everyone could benefit by reading this book. It isn't a one-time read either - definitely something that will be referred to often and a "go-to" in trying times for comfort." - Ave G., who retired early to care for her mother at home

"I love the blending of scripture, reflection, and real-life observations. Lisa's very personal and insightful view sets Minding Mom apart from other books in this genre. I highly recommend that anyone who wants to contemplate life, where they're going, and where they've been, not just read this book but sit with it and let it become absorbed into their system. They will be the richer for it." - Ben Bongers, KM, Gerontologist, author, and contributor to eldercare textbooks
