Becoming a caregiver for my elderly mother was unexpected, overwhelming,
incredibly stressful and life changing. My goal was to keep her safe, comfortable,
as healthy as possible all while meeting her needs. It is an understatement to say
that this task was incredibly difficult.
For you, caring for an aging parent, a spouse, or another family member, may be a
different experience altogether. In any case, stepping into the role of a caregiver
will cause many emotions and often more than one emotion at the same time.
