Kristine and Neal started going out in 2004, moved to the Macedon Ranges in 2005, had their son Sam in 2006 and their daughter Eloise in 2009.  

Everything was going according to their messy plan until 2017 when Neal became seriously ill.

The journey of an unexpected carer

 

Highly recommend this podcast series. It breathes light into an unknown illness, a family navigating the journey with love, grief and brutal honesty.  Have the tissues ready.

Kristine's and Neal's story is beautifully told from the perspective of everyone involved. I was immediately drawn in and felt like it was something that could have happened to me or someone else close to me. 

It's an incredible tale of how life can change completely and told in such an insightful way.

Highly recommend.

I have listened to the first 3 of 6 episodes.  I knew the 'Neal medical story' before listening. But not Kristine's story.

I found Kristine's voice intriguing and captivating through episode 1. Humour entwined with pathos. And unscripted agony. I wanted her to break down.

But an upbeat woman not a defeated one was talking to me.

I couldn't help but focus on Kristine's voice as I listened to episodes 2 and 3. And I heard, then, her indescribable strength and persistence and love, which overrode my previous desire for her to be weepingly raw to the listener.

3 more episodes to come. It's like reading a gripping book as I wait for those. I'll then reflect lots more, no doubt.

I highly recommend!
