Carol,

I agree with every one and especially Gary , We dont know what goes through ones mind at a time like this ( or any really) We all cope differently. I can't even Imagine what you as caregivers go through ..The only experience I have had ..besides being a mom LOL.. Was taking care of my gramma for the summer when I was 15 ( while grandpa worked) She had minears disease ( spelling?) So while it wasnt life threatening she could not do for herself. I feel so much for all of you care givers out there..for the love and compassion you have and most of all the Strength..To help us through and Get yourself through..I dont think it is a bad thing that you are on the meds...At times I am seriously considering going on them now 4 months later... STill hard ..different ya know . I need people around ..That is my personality...I didnt nessacarilly want to go out in public right away ... But I wanted and I needed people around. I was lucky in the way I came through it..I can only say if and when I ever have to do it again ...I only hope that my caregiver will be as strong and compasionate as those I have met on here .

P.S. Do any of you give lessons...LOL... Hubby sure could use them ..hahaha
