I understand where you're coming from. Unfortunately the only thing I can suggest is that you do as much as your parent will let you, love them and pray alot! No matter how you slice and dice it, it's a difficult situation and one that more and more people are having to deal with. Have faith. At some point they will realize how important your help is. For now....patience. Best of luck to us all!

I was reading this article on how caregivers can help their family member with a disability or an aging parent. It got me to thinking?
What can we "the person in need" being doing now, along the way, to make our caregivers' life easier, more fullfilling, etc.????
I know, I often wonder, how my husband and children feel about my MS. And what I could do to reassure them or help them. Or what DOES your family member in need already do for you that helps you out SO MUCH!?
We have some WONDERFUL caregivers here at NT. Do any of you have any ideas????
Thank you!
