Thank you for sharing the study on caregiver decline, Denise.I agree that we need more support for our caregivers. It's studies like this one that can help pave the way for policy reforms and societal shifts that prioritize caregiver support, ensuring they don’t sacrifice their own health and happiness in the process.
Denise, this is such important information, which so often comes to caregivers too late in the game. Your point about the insensitivity (my word) of blaming caregivers for not taking care of their own health is so well taken. Unless someone has lived the experience, it’s difficult to understand.

Your word — insensitivity — is spot on. It’s another reason we need leaders in our space to have the personal experience.
