WHAT TO DO



This past week I got an e-mail from a listener. She thanked us for putting radio show on the air and had a couple of questions for me. First of all I want to thank anyone who calls or e-mails or somehow contacts us with questions or concerns or even just to tell us the story. You are the reason we produce the show as well as the TV show is helping people like you. Thank you.

The main theme of her e-mail was simply this; she was in her 60s and her mother was in her 90s. She has been taking care of her mother for several years and is starting to have concerns about her own health. This e-mail struck home for me because this was the whole reason for producing the show, when my mother died from caregiver burnout. She had been taking care of my dad for the previous four years and we were completely unaware of what caregiver burnout even was if it even existed, or what signs to look for. I spent the next several months researching and found that many people are in this position and are just completely unaware of it.

What I was able to do for this woman was director to companies that can help her. This included some home modification. Some home care some home health care, even a couple of mobile providers, including opticians, dental and podiatry. She was happy, first of all that someone listened, and secondly, that not only did we listen but we had some solutions for her and her particular situation. I was also able to suggest some financial solutions because neither she or her mother can work and they are both on a fixed income.

There are solutions out there!

These solutions work and have worked and will continue to work. We encourage anyone to just call us and let us know what's going on for your. Tell us your story. There are many solutions that we are aware of where we can help you. If we don't have a solution, we can find one.
