What a great idea, Scott. You're so right. Guilt doesn't have to be rational to be real. And it is very real for many caregivers. Sometimes I just feel like marching around with a placard and shout "Down with Guilt" or "Guilt be Gone! We're Doing the Best we Can." But alas, feelings of guilt seem to go hand in hand with caregiving.

I like the idea of dumping our guilt here, to share it with others who get it and can help us lessen the burden we place on ourselves. I'm tagging other members of the Caregivers group to bring them into the conversation. @sma1952 @lindabf @lisa_sj99 @besrus5 @soul @sylviapf @tavi @sandydominy1 @bbams @burrkay @rozalia @kwilbur @chesneydell1965 @martyc2016 @dawn_giacabazi @rjm62 @shortshot80 @azjulie @macbeth please read Scott's message above.

What guilt burden would you like to leave in the "dumpster"?
