Many spiritual caregivers, including chaplains, spiritual directors and clergy, are unaware of how they can support people with chronic health conditions. This book combines insights on chronic illness with spiritual care skills and suggestions to enhance well-being for people living with long-term illness.

Using a narrative approach, the author reflects on the stories of two women - Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, who travels from Kansas (a state of health) to Oz (an illness experience), alongside the author's personal experiences of managing an incurable autoimmune disease. Chapters will include guidelines and exercises that help equip caregivers to facilitate healing with people who live with long-term health conditions.

Kelly Arora, PhD is Assistant Clinical Professor in Spiritual Care at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and the Senior Adjunct Lecturer in Spiritual Care at the Iliff School of Theology. She is also a Spiritual Director in private practice.
