For two and a half years, journalist and author Casey Beros was the carer for her father as he passed away from cancer. In this chat, she not only tells Osher of her experience and how it changed her, but all the practical advice she wish someone had told her, including:

• important tips about navigating the healthcare system
• how to make sure carers can still care for themselves
• dealing with grief and finding meaning
