Diary of a New Caregiver: A Journey of Love, Loss, and Discovery
Caregiving is a demanding and often isolating experience. It can be difficult to find support and understanding from those who do not share your experiences. That's why the Diary of a New Caregiver is such a valuable resource. It offers a raw and honest account of the journey of a new caregiver, providing insights into the challenges, rewards, and insights gained along the way.
The Caregiver's Journey
The Diary of a New Caregiver begins with the author's decision to move her mother into her home after her mother is diagnosed with dementia. The author chronicles the challenges of caring for her mother, including her mother's increasing forgetfulness, confusion, and agitation. She also shares her own struggles with guilt, frustration, and grief.
