The Silent Suffering of Caregivers

Looking after loved ones in need is no small task. Those that take it on, usually women, often are forced to make major life changes with little or no support. In her new book, "Who Cares: The Hidden Crisis of Caregiving and How We Solve It," Emily Kenway relates her experience as the sole caretaker for her mother, who was diagnosed with cancer. The author speaks with Michel Martin.
