And as the daughter of a primary caregiver, I'd love to know how those caregivers here are most in need of support. As a caregiver, what most do you need from your loved ones who are not in the caregivee role?
nat, i adore you!

I am going to read thru the post but i was reminded the other day that sometimes we are caregivers of ourselves, always.

Ever had to put your own needs above all else?

Thats a hard thing to do, and that in itself can be stressful.
