Do you guys take care of your parents? I’ve been helping mine more lately, and it’s a lot to juggle with work.
My dad had surgery a few months ago, so I’ve been helping him get around. I didn’t realize how physically and emotionally draining caregiving can be.
I do. My mom’s been having some memory issues, so I check in on her daily and do her grocery shopping. It’s tough, but I feel like it’s the least I can do.
same here. Using a fall alarm system from https://bewellalert.com/product/mini-lightweight-mobile-medical-alert-system/ for my elderly father has been a lifesaver. I no longer have to worry constantly when I’m at work or running errands. The device automatically alerts me if he falls, and it even has a button he can press if he needs help. It gives us both peace of mind and a sense of safety. The setup was easy, and the battery lasts for days. I can sleep better knowing he’s protected.
