How are you describing your life as a caregiver? Do you remember when you or someone in your family brought home a new baby from the hospital? Can you recall the joy, the excitement, the pride? A few months later, you were probably still excited with this new addition to your family, but a little less so. Were you starting to become more tired, sleep deprived, feeling a bit isolated? Were you becoming more irritable with family members and friends? Family members and friends take notice. How did you feel when there were offers to babysit,or prepare dinner or run errands? Were you relieved? Did it help to have assistance with balancing your life? Now imagine your life as a caregiver for your spouse or parent? Is it important to have support to help with your loved one? The overwhelm, confusion, frustration and stress can cause you to forget the essence of the caregiver in you. Remember Caregivers Need Care Too.
