The Caregiver!

I am watching Tom Brokaw story about his family fighting cancer with him and how the big load fell on his daughter, Jennifer!  She loved taking on the role but no one realized what it took out of her!  And I identified!  Did I identify!  I took on the role for two sisters and both of these roles took so much out of me!  No one understands or fully appreciated what I willingly gave except my brother, Jim!   He would tell me how valuable my care was to each of them and beg me to keep on keeping on!  I understood what Jennifer was saying!  Few people give you the Clara Barton award!  Thanks Jim.

I will not forgot his praising me for making dinner at night and dealing with financial matters to protect the stroke victim which were difficult to understand!  Thanks Jim!  It took it out of you also with police families!
