Hats off to Caregivers

President Obama recently declared November as National Family Caregivers Month. Professional caregivers choose this professional because they have a passion for helping people in need and receive appropriate training. Non-professional caregivers, on the other hand, are often put in a position by default or choose to help their loved ones who are ill or incapacitated, and have little training. They "learn as they go," juggle their own families,careers and commitments along with their caregiver responsibilities.

So blessings on those caregivers who wear so many hats...chauffeur, cook, financial supporter, medicine dispenser, schedule organizer, decision-maker, and often a shoulder to cry on. We tip our hats to you!
