Little Update + The Dreaded Holidays…

07 Wednesday Nov 2012

Posted by Ann Napoletan in Blogging, Caregivers.com, Holidays, Mom

≈ 2 Comments

Mom has had a rough couple of days, but was peacefully asleep on the sofa when I got there after work tonight. She woke up long enough to smile, give me a kiss, and let me give her some juice, but she was very groggy. A friend generously gave me a like-new walker, so I took that over. She wasn’t up at all tonight, but we’ll see if she has any interest in using it tomorrow… Here’s hoping.

In other news, today’s Caregivers post addresses a topic that creates dread in many a caregiver – the holiday season. You can read about it here –> Holiday Hoopla: Don’t Let It Get You Down

Today on Caregivers, some tools and tips to help make life just a little better. I hope everyone will be able to find a useful nugget or two! Check it out here. 

“This month and throughout the year, let the quiet perseverance of our family caregivers remind us of the decency and kindness to which we can all aspire.”                ~President Barack Obama
