Matters of the mind...and the heart

I'm on my way to writing an extended version of my book. I think that including my oft trying journey with my mother-in-law Better to the book will add to its authenticity. It was a trying journey all right. I found dealing with her resistance very troublesome and arduous. I didn't like the role I was called to play and I often resented my role in it all. So, to relieve other caregivers of their guilt hating their need to be the primary caregiver, I decided to write about it. My role was not one I would have chosen but it was assigned me as many have been in my life due to my role as NURSE. Ugh! Anyway, it did teach me many things to pass on to other caregivers and taught me my limitations. A very good lesson to learn by the way for all caregivers.
