My daughter was my caregiver

My daughter (my caregiver) had nightmares, sleeplessness and had a hard time balancing her schedule, raising her daughter w/her schedules and taking care of me as well as fielding calls and keeping everyone abreast of my condition. I was so thankful she had the support of family and friends-I knew she needed to talk things out and have her own down time. I tried to use my friends and family to drive me to appointments to take the burden off of her. My adult children were willing to relieve each other and took turns. Yes- I know my illness took its toll on her and I will be forever grateful for all she has done for me. Barbara
