All are available to help defray your costs. Learn coping skills as a care-giver as well as getting the respect you deserve while grieving. Learn how to take care of you and your loved one. I had the honor of caring for both my parents. My father suffered with prostrate cancer and it had gone into his bones; I talk briefly about a drug that virtually took away his pain in the last 3 months of his life; most doctors haven't heard of it. After his demise, (I found out I had breast cancer), I was then faced caring for my mother (age 91, suffering with Alzheimer's and Diabetes), for many years. Learn about care-giving skills that will work for you. Come with me on My Roller Coaster Journey with "My Two Best Friends." Researchers have now linked Alzheimer's and Diabetes, the two are a deadly combination.
