I have only admiration for your intentions to care for your mother…We all have to work to untangle our association of taking care of ourselves with being selfish. The kind of dilemma you faced is a common one.

It's in our DNA to be the caregivers . . . for everybody else but ourselves. When we're needed, we're there, regardless of how detrimental that can be to our own health and well being. I'm so sorry you had to go through this but so glad you are on the road to recovery. terriporterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333055591899961253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-39183127606431064832015-09-11T04:57:59.436-07:002015-09-11T04:57:59.436-07:00I'm so glad that you are feeling better Dotti....I'm so glad that you are feeling better Dotti. I am almost certain that I would have done exactly what you did. We seem to think that self-care is selfish, but it is the opposite of that. I know this is something that I need to work on, and when I do take time to heal, to rest, to be - everyone is better off for it. heyjudephotographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06098165048025314116noreply@blogger.com
