A sense of humor always a positive! I do crave an away vacation…. (along with my daughter been caring for my 93 year old mom for three years now). That’s the big change in my life which may play a part in my situation. The GI issues are new to me, good to know you’ve arranged a workable life though suffering for so long. Bon Voyage.

@mythmara , When you are the main caregiver for a person, it is necessary to also take care of yourself with regular breaks from the care, even if only a 24 hour vacation. My husband and I have been caring for my mother-in-law for the past 9 years, and now my husband has had to care for me too for the past year-and-a-half, so I make sure we take breaks once in a while. Last year, we took 6 days off after my radiotherapy, this year we took 5 days off before my surgery and will take 11 days off in June. My husband has GI issues when we don't take these breaks. I was having sleep issues.
