I try to allow for as much independance as possible but the number of broken dishes are adding up.

The loud clanging of dishes slipping into the sink out of sheer laziness (not lack of ability) and carelessness is really triggering worse, it's becoming unsafe for my kid. #sandwichgenstruggles

Another day, another hostile outburst. #sandwichgenstruggles It's great, I'm getting flashbacks of my early childhood and realizing how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together. I almost feel bad for myself. 🤥

Topic on the other app.

I'm hesitant to obtain PoA for my LO (loved one.)

I feel like there is something that I do not know, that I *need* to know - before upholding that level of responsibility, even though I'm already handling it with them beside me. #aging #sandwichgenstruggles

My nose was running this am. (Aka "relief," but not really.) So tune in tomorrow to find out if the same effing thing happens again. 😒 #dealingwithallergies #sandwichgenstruggles

This makes things easier to track if you miss a dose or not. It's not fool proof, but it helps. #sandwichgenstruggles #eldercare #medicationanagement #caregiving
