You come on back and moan a bit whenever you want to! We get it! And we don't think less of you that you are not 100% enthralled with your caregiving role day in and day out.

Venting can help.

Be sure to let us know if you have a specific practical issue that you'd like our comments and suggestions for. Otherwise, we'll just commiserate with your venting.

Sometimes, it's just easier to go along with what they want instead of convincing and/or explaining. I get it. Still, it does get on one's nerves. Venting is helpful and a good thing to do when possible. That's why I like this site so much.

It sounds like you really have been providing a lot of care. I can't imagine doing that kind of thing. My cousin is in Memory Care, so my day to day duties are limited, but I do help with my parents and that can be challenging. In the scheme of things, though, they aren't that bad. I can't complain, though, I still do at times. lol

Forgive me for griping about trivialities - but I get soooo tired of hearing about her constipation, diarrhea, stomach aches, bad back, lack of energy, tiredness, blah, blah, blah, blah. It truly is the 'same ole, same ole' day in and day out. I know life isn't fun for her. It isn't much fun for us either. Thanks for listening. Bless you ALL - especially all of you who have a much more difficult time than I do. Hang in there and may you find peace one day soon.
