My wife, children and Nana

[IainH]

Taking care of my mom when she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's back in '06 was 24/7 at her home away from mine.  Luckily my daughter and her husband moved back from Boone into my Mom's house so I could come home at night.   I was so grateful for that.  It is very overwhelming and everyone's life becomes so much more challenging and difficult no matter how strong you are.  Caregiving is very difficult and takes a toll in many ways.  It is critical for your wife to have serious breaks from it often.  Take my word for it.   There are organizations with volunteers that will come in and help with that "break time".  Be sure to check into it.

In the meantime, i will definitely beseech Father to reach His big arms down and hold you all up and give you all that you need for this!

Thank you.
