I have been a full time caregiver for my husband for the last 6 years. I think we each have our own level of stress before we say I can’t do it anymore.
The strain got to me 3 years ago when I kept telling myself I couldn’t take it anymore. The isolation of 24/7 care combined with Covid had finally gotten to me and I telling myself I couldn’t do it anymore. A few months later I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Fortunately I am fine now but when I catch myself saying I can’t do this anymore I trying to tell myself that there is a different way of looking at the current situation It does seem to help.
More importantly we all have different ways of handling the stress and we all have a variety of issues to weigh when making any decisions regarding the situation
Ill keep your daughter in my prayers

Thanks for your from the heart reply. I will pass it on. There is also something I always say. God works in mysterious ways.
