Congratulations to Dale for Neither Wife nor Widow: Exploring the emotional realities of caregiving!

I'm speechless and honored to share that my book, "Neither Wife nor Widow," was selected as a finalist for the 2025 National Indie Excellence Award (NIEA) in the caregiving category. The message of taking care of our nation's mighty caregiver heroes is being heard, and I couldn't be more grateful and I thrilled.
