Excellent post! Taking care of a loved one is stressful and when a loved one has dementia, it is very, very difficult. If you're alone in it, it's more than even the strongest can bear. Be on high alert 23 hours a day, 7 days a week is an impossible level of stress - getting some respite is key to survivng.

 

Thanks for this!
