Hi Kathy....so so true. You keep on keeping on even when you feel you can't because your loved one needs you more than ever. Take care & keep smiling. Love Hazel B xx
Well done, it is very true what you say. But you know what keeps me going on?, I was recently told by a care worker that one of her "ladies" has dementia and that apart from her going in 4 times a day, the lady is left on her own all day. Now, when I hear of this and realise that I live in a society that treats vunerable and needy people in this way, I redouble my efforts, gird my loins and keep on keeping on because at the end of the day, there's just you, despite us "all being in it together".
This is exactly how I am feeling today. When I feel I could scream and walk out, a little voice says to me "You at least can get a break occasionally from PSP. Peter cannot" This makes me keep on keeping on.
Your words are so true. I could never have imagined what a difficult job it could be to care for someone with PSP, and although we get tired, irritable, etc. etc. we soldier on unconditionally because we love them. Thank you for your words, it all helps to hear that we CAN and DO keep "keeping on".
