Today is the last day of National Family #Caregivers Month. As @TonyStark likes to remind us -- and correctly -- Kamala had a plan to help caregivers keep their loved ones at home. But people rejected that in favor of the fascist sh#tshow we have now.
Anyway, here's to my mother who took care of my father for over 15 years -- some at home; some not. A photo, my favorite of the two of them, from the happiest of days.💜
We are coming to the end of National Family #Caregivers Month. I am posting this photo in honor of my mother, Tzip, who gave everything she had to my father, Jerry, as he was dying from early-onset #Alzheimer's. It was the 80s-90s &I don't recall #caregiving as something anyone was thinking about. Many thanks to #RosalynnCarter's foundation & #SethRogen &#LaurenMillerRogen's #HFC (& many more). They are heroes. How I wish my mother & our family had access to these support networks.

Note to Scott Galloway:
Protection is not just a masculine thing. It's a female thing, too.
Women protect their communities, their children, their families. We are most often the #caregivers.
And #caregiving is about nurture & protection.
Women can be warriors. And partners.
I'm collating these in case any mention practical support groups who might help someone. Even a few hours' carer respite a week might be good.

I wrote this for #caregivers w/my friend & healthcare expert, Ilyse Veron, a while back. One thing that strikes me as important but not always top of mind is that the person w/#dementia might be having an especially difficult day b/c they are in pain, physical pain. I think we are quick to attribute symptoms to neurological deficits when sometimes the problem is bodily. It can be hard to figure out but worth trying.
