GROWING STRONGER TOGETHER

ON THE FRONTLINES OF CAREGIVING

I try too hard.

It has just about zero to do with my beautiful bride or her disability from juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, plus dozens of major surgeries–some botched, and some inducing joint pain and nerve damage.

I’m pretty sure it comes from expectations I put on myself. I’m a fairly rational guy, but when it comes to being a front-line caregiver for more than 35 years, I’m susceptible to magical thinking.
