"I'm a care taker of 2 Hospice patients, my mother and ex husband. I have help with my mom for 10 hours daily and I take the night shift. With my Ex right now I'm his full time care giver. I hope to have help with him starting next week. There are times when I feel like I'm on a deserted island in a hurracaine, I rarely get in the vortex of calm and those moments are super. My psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis are in flares and now migraines from stress. I've had respite care through hospice but it's doesn't alleviate the total desperation of loneliness. The main people I've gone to were my dad, my mom and Ex. My dad is gone, and mom and the ex are sick. I would like to have the one person I could go to cry my eyes out and be told it's ok."
