I admire people who at this stage of their life, still has the right sense of humor and joke without a change in their facial expression. She is a tremendous personality. 10 kudos for you and keep on!

I am a Part-time Caregiver right now. I truely enjoy being able to take care of Senior Citizens. I took care of my Mother about 7 years ago. Seniors are a joy to be with and laugh with. I love to share my stories with them as well as listen to their stories about their life experiences.
It's nice to know that we as Caregivers can make a difference in their lives. Smile and the world will smile back at you!

You're right, Dale, this is a family issue. The consequences of stress from being a caregiver has an enormous impact on both genders. We will certainly keep this in mind as we present more information.

Why are you focusing on only women acting as caregivers? What about the husbands? What about the sons and son-in-laws who are equally pressured by taking care of aging parents, grandparents and inlaws. If our wives are burdened, then we are equally burdened.
I can say from experience that a daughter will work herself right into the ground while her aging parent(s) becomes more and more demanding, and her children and marriage will suffer because of it. Lets treat this as a family issue please.
