How Do You Manage the Overwhelm?
Family caregivers regularly share how overwhelming a caregiving experience is. What helps you?
On Friday, Jennifer Richey, a Certified Caregiving Consultant, and I gathered for our monthly episode of Caregiver Support Live. During our show, we answer questions from family caregivers. Sometimes, family caregivers reach out directly to us with questions. Other times, we answer questions posed by family caregivers in other advice columns.
During this episode, we answered a question from a family caregiver who is overwhelmed caring for her mom who has cancer. We did our best to share insights. You can watch our episode, below.
What helps you when you feel overwhelmed? What insights would you offer to this family caregiver?
