Of course along with the caregiving is the stress. The physical and emotional health of the caregiver sometimes becomes comprised. Among many of the problems that caregivers experience are depression, sleeplessness, a sense of isolation, family tensions, grief, and loss of the person you knew before! Do any of these sound familiar! Well, we ma …

I've been working on a healthy eating regime of which I've gone forward with tremendous success but has also gone backwards just as much. In addition to healthy eating; exercise is just as important "as ordered by the doctor" …
