The Ultimate Caregiver Community!

Yay…I’m still loving my holistic doc! It’s meant so much in so many ways — including the overall way I care for myself! I highly recommend all caregivers find one!

I can only begin to tell other caregivers how much exercise has helped me. Even though I’m an outdoorsy kind of person, regular fitness routines never were a thing for me. But, this past year I’ve gotten into it more and it’s made such a difference in my overall wellbeing — mind and body.

Hey caregiver! Does anyone have an idea for Christmas dinner that easy to make? I’m not a great cook and want to make something special for my mom.

I saw Nuremberg over Thanksgiving weekend. Wow! Excellent performances and I learned so much about the Holocaust that I didn’t know. I highly recommend the movie!

I’m advocating for a family whose father is quite ill. There are more and more hurdles to even getting someone on the phone, let alone the care itself. The system is so messed up and I can’t see it getting better. If any other caregivers in NYC have time to chat about a couple of access topics, please DM me.

Hi fellow caregivers! Has anyone heard of co-owning/sharing a pet? I miss having a dog and no way can I take care of one full-time with my caregiving work. Please DM me if you know of such a thing in the NYC metro area. Thanks.

Wow, I’m still “recovering” from my holiday travel to see family over Thanksgiving. It was wonderful, but intense. I knew my Uncle Steve was diagnosed a few years ago and didn’t know much it was progressed. He was such a vibrant person and happy. How? Sigh. 😞

With the holidays here, I hope my fellow caregivers find time for self-care. Anything from a walk to a massage to lunch with friends, it’s all helpful so you don’t burnout. I’m meeting up with long-time friends the weekend after Christmas and can’t wait!
