Coming soon: "Oy", and sometimes, "eek"... while these are words I would use to describe the day-to-day of caregiving, "glee" is at the top of the list when I see that my mom's quality of life has improved. So, I've shared some of the things I've been able to simplify for me and the things that have helped her. Perpetual balancing act. If you're in the same boat, take a deep breath (lying on your back helps), and start exploring.
