For the adult child behind the caregiver
She's caregiving for a loved one. You're caring for her.
That's a different job entirely โ and it needs different support.
You know this feeling
๐ She's running on empty โ rejecting help, losing herself โ and you're watching it happen from a distance, one day a week
๐ You take them both to the loved one's doctor appointment but she minimizes issues and can't remember the question she wanted to ask
๐ The medication list lives in her head. The emergency contacts are on a sticky note. There's no system โ just scrambling
๐ค People offer to help. She says "thanks, I'll let you know." She never does, because she's too overwhelmed to even know what to ask for
about lynn
I'm The Caregiver's Daughter โ literally. I've spent years watching my mom care for her partner with dementia. Seeing her tend to his every need, rejecting offers of help, while I desperately try to figure out how to support her on the one day a week I'm there โ and the rest of the days from afar.
I've navigated the guilt, the resistance, the impossible balancing act of trying to care for someone who's already caregiving but minimizes the toll of the work they're doing and won't admit they need support.
I'm not a medical professional. I'm someone who has been in the exact situation you're in โ and who has created the practical resources I wished existed when I was searching for them.
