Four Eyes - Alisha Bashaw - Bog

- A Memoir of a Millennial Caregiver

Bag om Four Eyes

Can Alisha find balance between self-sacrifice and individuation, or will she watch herself slowly fade away in the process?Eight months into graduate school in a new city, Alisha's mom suffered a heart attack on her dad's 60th birthday, rerouting her entire life and demanding that she catapult into full adulthood. Four Eyes: A Memoir of a Millennial Caregiver chronicles the story of Alisha's struggle to find meaning in the seemingly pointless repeated defeats of her parents' chronic illnesses that orphaned her in her early 30s. Assuming a caregiving role for her parents in addition to pursuing her own developing life path, Alisha struggles through old maps of thinking where guilt and shame reigned until others were pleased, and she was utterly exhausted.Her witty journey to make sense of it all takes her straight into battle with the crippling grief and powerful darkness that threaten to take over entirely. And to win, she must let go of all she once knew, and follow the unknown into the world of organ donation, deep resiliency, and answerless faith. Sometimes the answer is "I don't know."
