2. Well this hits home...

Had my beloved Mom with us for 5, going on 6 years.

Her mind was good but needed some physical help and had terrible Macular...she passed away in January, a week shy of 94, from a fall while we were at work.

We miss her terribly.



Caregiving is very hard and gets next to none of the attention it should have.

Thank you Bernie for doing this.

3. I'm one part-time

I share caring for one parent who has physical disability + mental. Bless you for being there, acknowledging us, dear Bernie. Feel like I could cry.
