The draw back of being a full time carer (amongst many others) is that sick days dont happen. Whatever is wrong, we have to suck it up and get on with things, all the while ensuring the person we are caring for doesn’t catch it.

Very true. More as a carer
Parents clock up an average of 2.3 hours of household chores and complete more than 20 separate tasks before the paid workday even begins
Four in five parents say they have a 'full working day before 9am'
