As caregivers, all too often people around us judge us and our decisions relentlessly, mercilessly, ignorantly. If we are fortunate, there are others in our lives who are empathetic, supportive, and enduringly kind.

As carers, we give so much of ourselves. In the best of circumstances, we do so freely, happily. No matter our circumstances, we have limits of physical, emotional, and financial endurance. We owe ourselves grace.

#Alzheimers #dementia #mentalhealth
Always Give Help when you can. Be there when you can. Encourage when you can. A truly happy life comes from giving more than you take.
