Hello PattyElle - welcome to the family. It's a big one and has a lot of caregiver members just like you.

You sound like you already have it pretty well figured out. But, sometimes we patients can be a little fickle and that can put stress on a caregiver. If that happens, that's when the suggestions from this group will be most valuable.

Take care, stay strong, the love of your life is lucky to have you.
