While this sounds similar to last week's winner, it's a different candidate and simply a story that's all too common. One spouse trying to juggle work, regular household chores, and the care of their spouse who now has dementia. It's a lot: the logistics of it, the physical and emotional toll, the grief of losing a partner even though they're right in front of you.

Family Caregiver Self-care Package #3 delivered!

Many of you know this family caregiver from her professional work, but she's also caring for multiple loved ones in her life. You never know who around you is going through something with their family and could use some support in one way or another. They are burning both ends of the candle. Take care of yourselves, caregivers! Take the break, accept the help, your family needs you ❤️

🎉 Nominated by 🎉

"This caregiver has been dedicated to seniors in our community for years as an Edward Jones Advisor. She has recently taken time away to care for her husband with dementia.

For all you do, remember to care for yourself too. There are many resources and support for family caregivers so you don’t have to go it alone."

I'll reach out to the caregiver today to let her know!
