Hi Liz:
I made it to that "New Normal" (Whatever that is) and I try to show my appreciation to my caregiver (Wife) everyday in some way. Sometimes it's flowers, an extra kiss, a simple note showing my appreciation for her, or things she may not physically witness, that extra thought acknowledging how special she truly is, or even a little prayer just for her, not only for what she done to help me through, but for what she is, a wonderful, compassionate human being. I truly feel blessed to still be here for her and our children now, and without her love (Sometimes tough), dedication, and devotion, I'm not sure I would be here typing this right now!! Liz, you hit it on the head with your comments, juggling work, kids, errands, bills (Oh, juggling those bills), household chores, basically everything, WOW!!

So GOD BLESS all you caregivers and the sacrifices you have made!!! You all are truly the glue that holds things together when things were tough.

Steve
