Hope for the Caregiver is the nation’s leading broadcast for family caregivers, hosted by Peter Rosenberger. With four decades of experience as a caregiver to his wife, Gracie—who has undergone 90 surgeries and bilateral amputations—Peter provides practical insights, biblical wisdom, and much-needed humor for fellow caregivers. His approach is candid, often humorous, and always grounded in the reality of caregiving’s daily struggles and triumphs.
In this episode, Peter shares an update on Gracie’s ongoing medical journey, including her recent surgeries to address severe orthopedic complications that have lasted decades. He describes the challenges of extended hospital stays, navigating the healthcare system, and the importance of advocating for loved ones. He also reflects on the importance of caregiver authority—standing firm in conversations with medical professionals while ensuring that a loved one’s needs are met.
Amidst these serious topics, Peter brings his signature wit, recounting experiences in Aurora, Colorado, where he’s currently stationed during Gracie’s treatment. From navigating hospital hallways to dodging crime scenes and Canadian geese, he finds humor in the chaos, reminding caregivers that even in the darkest moments, laughter can be a lifeline.
Additionally, Peter highlights the 20th anniversary of Standing with Hope, the prosthetic limb outreach he and Gracie founded to serve amputees in Africa. This ministry, along with the caregiver outreach, is a testament to their mission: sharing hope with the wounded and those who care for them. Through every challenge, Peter continues to encourage caregivers to stand strong, stay informed, and hold onto the hope that sustains them.
