It has indeed been a journey. I have been a caregiver for more than 35 years and have run the gamut of diseases. Nothing scares me more than Alzheimer's.
Why? There is no recovering from this disease. I have seen the devastation, financially, emotionally, physically and often spiritually to friends and families.
As a caregiver -- or as I feel -- "a giver of care," I must step back quite often and "put the oxygen mask" on myself and inhale deeply so that my journey to help end this disease continues!
