Caregivers of children with disabilities or siblings with disabilities

Posted by Rubyslippers @triciaot, 1 day ago

I’ve recently taken over the care of my sister with disabilities. Caregiving for a person born with an incurable disability is somewhat different from caring for the aged, or an adult onset medical condition.

My sister is 65 with developmental disabilities. She is in a private independent living group. The transfer of her care has involved massive amounts of time to change payment accounts of all kinds to my name, not to mention legal paperwork. With that behind me, there are almost weekly issues to manage or decide upon.
