Thank you, Chris, for sharing your experience. It is very helpful just not feeling so isolated. I guess like everyone in the world, sometimes I forget that others have experienced similar experiences. I am trying to learn to take the advise of others to stop running myself ragged and that seems to be my hardest obstacle to overcome.
I was a full time caregiver to my grandmother and great greatmother who were both suffereing from terminal cancer. I did that for four years but was a lot younger than I am now and lived in the house with them at the time.
Thank God I am discovered a wonderful man...capnhowdy...who has been very, VERY supportive of me and my parents. He encourages me to take time for JUJU and doesn't make me feel guilty at all on the times I have to be away from him to care for them.
I even took the day off today and did NOTHING but relax.
