Love Never Fails: The daily round and common task of caring for my disabled wife

With the media widely reporting the shortcomings of the care industry in the UK the subject continues to arouse public concern. Don Snuggs memoir, Love Never Fails, offers a unique insight into what it is like to be the sole carer and husband to a disabled wife, and the failures of the UK care industry. Love Never Fails is the memoir of a retired nurse and acupuncturist Don Snuggs, who, at the age of 75 years old, married a lady with a progressive condition, who is wheelchair dependent and requires assistance in all aspects of daily life. The book records their life together as a newly wed couple facing the challenging task of enjoying married life within the confines of disability and illness. Don paints a picture of the challenges, failures and successes, and reveals the commitment and selflessness required by a carer to a loved one. Over the 10 years that he has cared for his wife, Don has come into contact with external support providers hoping that they could help to ease his caring role, but sadly these encounters have not been positive. In the book, he offers his opinion on how the care industry could be improved to support others in a similar situation. Drawing from Dons previous nursing experience, Love Never Fails offers readers a unique insight into the plight of a totally dependant patient and the problematic care industry in the UK a subject that continues to gain increasing prevalence in todays news. The book will appeal to readers who act as a carer for a loved one, as well as those with an interest in the care industry and readers that enjoy memoirs. See more
