The Caregivers
"Caregiving only works, in my experience, when it's circular -- and I want to give Nancy opportunities to care for me, sometimes I do that consciously but not always. Sometimes I just genuinely need her to just touch my hand, to say it's all right." -- George Mairs
Caregivers can't -- and shouldn't -- go it alone. Burn-out is a real danger and it is essential to get help. David Egner offers some suggestions in Caring for the Caregiver.
