Respite Responses
/
Editorial List
Ask a caregiver and stand back as the most
fascinating replies flood in over the transom. One reason I
love the Fearless Caregiver Conferences so much is that no
matter where you are in the country or around the world, when
caregivers are able to answer one another's questions there are
no wiser professional responses to be found.
Here are a selection of the responses I
received from last week's article on respite.
Thanks so much for your terrific resource.
You are wanting to hear from the readers what was the last thing
I did when taking time for myself...Continued
Thanks for asking what we do for our own
respite (or get-away) whether they be small or large...Continued
I only found you a few months ago and
immediately shared my findings with Crossroads and Carers...Continued
Although I'm not a caregiver any longer, I
still look forward to your newsletter....Continued
I take a break, what you might consider
respite, about once a month for a few hours...Continued
After almost 7 years as a caregiver, I
recently discovered day care...Continued
I am different than most for I will be 90
years old on July 8th...Continued
Before we leave the topic of respite for a
while, would you take a moment and respond to the short survey
on the homepage of
caregiver.com.
I promise, no essay writing is involved and it will take no more
than ten seconds. But I think you will find the results to be
quite interesting.
