Hi @Cappy67
Didn't you know a carer is invisible. It's a super power I've acquired.
A few years ago, a paramedic doing tests on my wife after a fall, said to me, when the tests turned out to show "normal" results, "Well the most important thing is that your wife is OK". I wasn't lost for words, as these words made me angry. I told the paramedic that that was not the most important thing at all. The most important thing, I informed him, was that I was OK, as without me being OK my wife would have to be in hospital or in care as she was not in a position to look after herself. Sheepishly he apologised. I said also that a PWD is actually not and never will be OK, OK?
Yes I'm also happy to help, even though I am alone, lonely and quite often invisible!
Keep smiling.
