So proud of Mary Gachau for creating such a meaningful and inspiring book. Her passion really shines through every chapter.

Great!
Mary Gachau has truly dedicated her precious time to put pen to paper in sharing her life’s experience both in her singlehood and her frontline involvement in spending considerable time with a cancer patient, whom she considered a role model. Her undeniable skill in story telling as well as polished grammar make her
the best suited to win this award.
I can attest that this is greatly crafted work of art. Borne of experience and love and loss and is a true testament of the highs and lows and everything in-between of the journey. Keep writing and writing well
A friend recommended me to these books,truly inspiring!
“Caregivers: The Silent Partners in Cancer Care” is a powerful and deeply evocative title. It shines a much-needed light on the often-overlooked individuals who provide unwavering emotional, physical, and logistical support to cancer patients. Referring to caregivers as “silent partners” acknowledges both their crucial role in the healing journey and the quiet strength with which they serve—frequently without recognition or respite. This title honors their dedication and sacrifices, and it sets the tone for a compassionate and insightful exploration of a topic that deserves far greater awareness and appreciation.
Kudos, @MaryGachau! Your artwork puts faith into action, reflecting the biblical principle that Jesus began by doing, then teaching.
Both books awesome and inspiring touching on real life situations.
The book is very informative. Great piece
There is something unique when stories are written from personal experience. They give authenticity and reality to life. These two books provides exactly that.

Mary has always being a voice for us even as we grew up together as young ladies ….. a great influence also to the younger generation. Well done my sister and friend . The Lord bless you for being courageous enough to speak out loudly what we have feared to say.

As both a cancer patient and the daughter of one, Caregivers: The Silent Partners in Cancer Care spoke to parts of me I didn’t even know needed words. Through her writing, Mary Gachau gives voice to the often forgotten heroes in the cancer journey, the caregivers.
Her work captures, with grace and honesty, the quiet strength, love, and exhaustion that define caregiving. It’s more than a book, it’s a mirror, a comfort, and a tribute to everyone who has ever walked beside someone in pain.
Mary doesn’t just tell stories, she creates understanding, empathy, and healing. For this reason, I truly believe she deserves recognition. Her words don’t just raise awareness, they restore dignity to caregivers and offer solace to those of us who’ve lived this journey firsthand.
Mary Gachau’s work is a gift ,one that should be celebrated, shared, and honored.
It’s very insightful. Love it.
It is so good to see such books written by one of us..when thoughts are put on paper lives change. Thank you Gashau. Looking forward to reading them.

The book on singlehood has great insights and as a single I felt represented in the pages of this book. It helps bring out the challenges thereof for someone who may never have understood singles but also gives ways how the singles can thrive in this phase of their lives.
The books by Mary are most inspiring and do encourage us caregivers and those who give their lives to serve others especially the vulnerable, ailing, less fortunate. Loving and passion is her passion. Her literature is eye openers.
Mary Gachau indeed is very insightful.
I happened
to find her book on caregiving a time that I was going through a long Sickness that had altered my sanity and that of my folks who were taking the caregiving role for 3 years to be precise.
The very first thing I learned is that self care for the caregiver is not selfish. It actually the only way to remain strong and effective both for himself and the recipient
The Second thing that I learned is that a caregiver also needs to be cared for by others the same way they care for the patient for them to more effective.
This helped open my eyes to see things I had overlooked so much when my husband was taking care of me as my primary caregiver. For example I wanted him to stay by my side all the time. I didn’t realize how he needed even a walk for just some fresh air being the primary caregiver, financia and all
I since then I began encouraging him to take breaks so he could rejuvenate.
Mary indeed deserves this award
A fantastic, gifted and insightful writer whose pen pierces the innermost part of the reader’s heart like the surgeons knife.
Mary has a way with words and writes passionately and from real life experiences.
Go on Mary, keep writing, keep inspiring and keep God’s people in hope amidst calamities and challenges.
Looking forward to your next piece.
