Caring for a loved one can be rewarding; however, with this sense of gratification comes exceptional challenges to one''s lifestyle, mental health, and financial stability. Although there is some research on the AfricanAmerican caregiver, there is a dearth of literature that addresses their perceptions and lived experiences in the caregiving role. Nancy Lee utilizes Fisher''s (1985) narrative paradigm to frame this study of twelve AfricanAmerican caregivers who share their care giving stories, through indepth personal interviews.The author discusses the relevant literature on the AfricanAmerican caregiver, to include the physical and emotional effects of caregiving, support systems utilized by AfricanAmerican caregivers, and ethnic influences in the caregiving experience. Twelve themes emerged utilizing thematic analysis. The role of communication among the care giver, care recipient and extended family members makes this a "must read" for social workers,health care providers and health care communicators. Lee, herself, was a caregiver for over ten years.
