You might be feeling guilty for not being able to take care of your parents every single moment. You’re not selfish. You’re human. 💙
Caring for aging loved ones is demanding—physically, emotionally, and mentally. Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or in need of a break does not mean you love them any less. It means you’re recognizing your own limits, which is essential for sustainable care.
Accepting help—whether from a professional caregiver, companion care, or family support—is not giving up. It’s choosing balance, safety, and the best possible care for your parents. When you’re rested and supported, you show up with patience, love, and clarity.
