Publisher Letter Friends,


Below is an excerpt taken from an article inside, Caring for the Caretaker. Fortunately, I have not been in this situation yet, but I know many who have. I'm sure you do, too. Being a caretaker is such a loving and selfl ess undertaking, yet it is exhausting and can be damaging. Please take a mo- ment to read the article and refer your loved ones to it should the need arise.


Caregiver’s Bill of Rights


I have the right to take care of myself. This is not an act of selfi shness. It will give me the ability to take better care of my loved one.


I have the right to seek help from others even though my loved one may object. I know the limits of my own endurance and strength.


I have the right to maintain parts of my own life that do not include the person I care for just as if he was healthy. I know that I do everything that I reasonably can do for this person. I have the right to do some things just for myself.


I have the right to get angry, be depressed, and express dif- fi cult feelings once in a while.


I have the right to reject any attempt by my loved one to make me do things out of guilt or anger. (It doesn’t matter if she knows they are doing it or not.)


I have the right to get considerations, affection, forgiveness, and acceptance for what I do for my loved one, as I offer these in return.


I have the right to take pride in what I’m doing. And I have the right to applaud the courage it has taken to meet the needs of my loved one.


I have the right to protect my individuality. I also have the right to a life that will sustain me when my loved one no longer needs my full-time help.


(Author unknown) Wishing you a lovely, healthy spring.
