A carers life

A carers' life is never done.

They are constantly putting

others before themselves.

Sometimes,  from a very early age.

Looking after fellow siblings

and doing household chores.

Maybe is even looking after

a parent on top.

To is even feeding them,

clothing them and taking them

to the toilet.

As well as assisting them

with their medical needs.

A carer can come in all ages,

sex, sizes.

As well as from many countries.

A universal theme.

I know there are organizations

that help to support the carers and
maybe even give them a

break.

The odd time from their duties of

helping that other soul.

So that they can spend a little

time doing what they wish for

a change.

So, they bring in someone else to

their home.

To help that person they assist.

To give them that time alone.

But a caregiver.

Is a selfless person who
gives they're all for

others. No matter.

Even if they are
family members or

not.

I admired a Carer.

The true sense of the word.

Not, the stories you see

and read in the newspapers

about carers abusing others.

No way, not them.

The decent, thoughtful, kind,

honest, caring, sweet ones.

Who love the people

they help and assist and love.

I/we discovered the carers group organised trips out - no cover to take over the duties of the carer
SO she would be left alone - uncared for - "Only for a day" they said

She wants a day out more than me - I can get around - she requires help - she want to meet other people
No it is for you only

OK we will just go for rides in the car and NOT MEET OTHER PEOPLE - stop pay my subs

Well we have our motorhome to go away in
Pam like to be outdoors and they expected you to leave youe patient at home alone
I couldn't do that > She needs a change of scenery
But recently I offered to take her down to watch the waves during a storm when she complained 'I never go out'
W have only been married 56 years now > I'm still learning

This country would collapse without carers.
Especially when you think, kids can be carers for parents.
But it's an army unappreciated in Britain.
Definitely undervalued and underpaid. Unlike that lot in Westminster.

needs a few edits...but is definitely a portrait of a caregiver, and the energy and love expended to take care of the one who needs the looking after.
