FROM MISSOURI
I care for my mother in law, Alice. She is 65 and does what she still can but gets easily tired due to 2 bouts of uterine cancer. I help her with whatever she needs. I also take care of her boyfriend as to setting up his mess and doing paperwork because he has Alzheimer's but can't do paperwork and mess. I also care for my sister in law Honda. She is in a powerchair and has MS. She is disabled due to this disease. I use a lift foot transfer her from bed to chair. I do all the paperwork as for insurance, medical, grocery shop, on call basically 24/7... There are hard days and easy days but I try my best to keep going because this is what I do.
