Still Here (A Husband's Story of Love, Loss, and Covenant)

When Jamie suffered two life-altering strokes at just fifty years old, her life was spared, but the marriage she and her husband had known would never be the same.

In Still Here, a devoted husband shares the deeply personal journey of learning to love, grieve, and remain faithful through thirteen years of caregiving. With honesty and compassion, he invites people into the hidden realities of chronic illness, changed relationships, quiet loneliness, and the daily choice to honor the words "in sickness and in health."

More than a memoir, Still Here is a testimony to God’s sustaining presence when healing does not come as expected. It is an invitation to discover that faithfulness is often found not in dramatic moments, but in ordinary acts of love repeated day after day.

Filled with Scripture, brief prayers, and thoughtful reflection questions, this inspirational guide offers encouragement for spouses, caregivers, married and engaged couples, pastors, church leaders, and anyone walking alongside someone they love through long-term suffering.

For those who have ever wondered how to keep loving when life doesn't go as planned, or how to trust God when the future looks different than they imagined, Still Here will remind people that hope and grief can coexist, covenant is worth keeping, and God's presence remains steadfast through it all.

Sometimes the greatest expression of love is simply staying.
