In the post's lengthy caption, Susanna wrote: "TOUGH MOTHER. "I have worked with this amazing woman @kategarraway for almost 10 years and there is nothing she can’t deal with. "As you can see from this shot from @gmb ’s Tough Mother event a few years back, she stays smiling whatever she’s going through! But while all her books are brilliant, her new volume The Strength of Love is something different.
"This is the unflinching, raw & honest truth of life caring for a loved one in some of the darkest moments. Navigating a labyrinthine care system. Explaining over and over the problems to those tasked with helping, until blue in the face.
"And then explaining again when meeting someone new. Disentangling helpful suggestions of treatments from the purely well-meaning." The post went on : "I thought I knew what Kate & Derek were dealing with. I was wrong.
Read this and be full of admiration for a woman you thought you couldn’t love more. "It is a powerful insight into a world many thousands are experiencing but does not get enough attention. She speaks for all those carers and families.
