About

Easter weekend of 2017 my mother suffered a massive stroke near the top of her brainstem.  The doctors said she should have died.  My father suffered a major stroke almost a year to the day (April 2018) that my mother had her stroke.  My sister-in-law quit her job to take care of my parents full time.  Because of geographical distance, I am only able to help out on the weekends and then during the summer and holidays.  During the school year I alternate weekends with another sister-in-law to help with their care.  This blog is our story from the caregiver perspective.  Caregiving is a sacrifice but it has also come with many blessings.  We hope to share our joys and sorrows and perhaps some helpful insights as we walk this journey.
