Why you can\
Anonymous
Tuesday, August 21, 2007 at 03:06 PMWell written article. I've been a care giver to my mom for 7 1/2 years now. She is joy to take care of. I always tell her that she is not a burden to me. And I know she understands that. And as the last paragraph says It's payback timeto a wonderful mother who took care of us. And though it's difficult at times I wouldn't change it.

They know it's hard work (usually), to care for them, even if they can't express it. We do it for love, and yes, it can be hard. We also do it with respect, for they are our elders. Thanks so much for validating my feelings.
Carol
