It's easy to put aside your own health when you were a caregiver for Errol. Having been through so much and spending time in hospitals has probably really heightened your sensitivity to those who are struggling and so ill. I hope you just continue to take care of yourself, and that doing so doesn't require too many trips on down the hill! :-) DebraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271959060195052715.post-32349830373130522912016-05-16T16:25:11.540-07:002016-05-16T16:25:11.540-07:00Never ever give up.

"Hey, this is my life we're dealing with here!" I want to yell. It is just a job to them. I have started to try to make them laugh. At least it makes me a person in their perceptions ... an irritating person but a person. :-) You have the right attitude. May your tests turn out well.Roland D.
