A caregiver’s truth: the world may drift away, but you are still here, still worthy, still more than your role. 💙

We truly are only human. The extraordinary pressures (time, personal sanity and health, finances, and grief) add to this, the high standards we hold ourselves to all lead up to a personal meltdown, even if only for a day or two now and then.

While this is universally true, I would say this is even more powerful when applied towards those that are in our care.

Dementia Word Cloud
A word cloud seems a fitting representation of the broad and complex topic of dementia. #dementia #Alzheimers #Caregiving #mexico #SanMiguelDeAllende

Statistics on Unpaid Caregivers
It is not as though we feel we need to be paid to take care of our loved ones (though it would help), but we often make so many sacrifices along the way, including some or all of our income and even our savings & retirement. #Alzheimer #SanMiguel

Odds of Developing Alzheimer's
As we live longer, we face the incredibly terrifying prospect of greatly increased odds of Alzheimer's.

This quote occurs to me now and then and reminds me what a selfless and noble thing caregiving is. And who could not benefit from that though now and then while feeling downtrodden with the challenges of caregiving. #Alzheimers #Caregiving #assistedliving #SanMiguelDeAllende

Projections for Alzheimer's
The projections for Alzheimer's are startling. With no prevention, treatment or cure in sight, this is all the more disturbing. #Alzheimers

[Cielito Lindo Senior Living @SeniorLivingSMA]

Seems ridiculous at first glance in the face of the incredibly daunting challenge of caregiving. But those that have been through it will tell you that it is true; you can get through this. #assistedliving #Alzheimers #Dementia #Mexico #SanMiguelDeAllende

Long-Term Care
These statistics reflect cultural differences but also to what degree other options are available, suitable and affordable. For example, Portugal has such a low rate of at-home care due in large part to the fact that there is an excellent government-funded program

[Cielito Lindo Senior Living @SeniorLivingSMA]

I am embracing the fact that many periods and aspects of our life on this planet are quite hard. We have so little control. All we can do is put it into a context to make some of it more bearable and other parts truly joyful.
