Caregiver Story |

Karen's Story - I Was Both Patient
and Caregiver at the Same Time
|
|
By Karen Evans
|
I think when one
becomes a 24/7 caregiver, they mentally move into that space in which only the take-charge dwell.
They develop a tunnel vision which enables them to concentrate on the needs of their loved one
without allowing the riffraff of everyday life invade that space.

Carenotes |

I take care of my 85 year old
mother. Truth be told, some
days I really don't like her. Don't
get me wrong, I love my mother and
would do anything to make her life
comfortable but she seems so
ungrateful. I never do
anything right (even though I do
mostly everything for her).
My husband is
saddened by the way she treats me
(and him sometimes) and thinks we
should put her in a home.
Whenever I mention it, she cries and
says she is going to do better, and
then I feel sorry for her.
After a couple of days she is back
to her old self and even curses at
me for wanting to get rid of her.
How do I handle
this without getting too angry with
her? I am losing
patience.
