Using an innovative, action research approach, Margaret Vickers
explores the lives of women who work full time while caring for a
child with significant chronic illness or disability. She
demonstrates that such women can be disconnected from those around
them, overwhelmed with responsibility at home and work, and dealing
with ongoing grief and anxieties while largely unsupported. On the
other hand, there are narratives of survival, kindness and
resilience. This qualitative study makes use of data poems,
fictional diary entries, firsthand interviews, research reflections
and constructed vignettes in conveying the life experiences of this
group of women.
