One day I will never forget. Went to see my mom on a Christmas Eve an few years ago. She was sitting on the sofa unable to get up. She had soilded herself and could not walk. She refused 9-1-1. I had no choice but to treat her myself for a UTI. I carried her to the bathroom. Bathed her. Hydrated her. Started an IV. Got her on antibiotics. It was a very long night. By Christmas Day she was better.
I cannot think of a harder job than being a caregiver for someone you love.
