Keep up the good work!

When my Mom got sick we had to take a hard look at the house. Some smaller rooms needed reconfiguring, one bed was replaced with a smaller one, and we had to make sure her oxygen line could reach everywhere without getting hung up and pinched.

lovely

Many families keep a drawer w/ juice boxes, crackers, cookies, & granola bars for #caregivers, esp. when you need 24/7 care.

It makes them feel appreciated, & your family won’t have to worry about someone accidentally eating the last of your loved one’s ice cream by mistake.

This right here! One of the thingsthat has hit me the hardest in the past is the old adage of "put your mask on before helping others". Thats really hard to do when you watching others suffer.

A quote on an orange background with a yellow speech bubble. The quote reads 'There are no home health aides available in our area. I am trying to take care of my husband, my mom, our kids and work, with no help.' Below the quote it states 'A FAMILY CAREGIVER' and 'NATIONAL CAREGIVERS DAY' with 'CaringOurWay.com' at the bottom.

Family caregivers rate their stress at 4.09 on a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the most stressed.

On National Caregivers Day, I think it's helpful to know what it's like to live with that kind of stress.
