Thanks Victoria. You are so right many just 'sleep walk' into caring. We as a Society, need to be more open about the challenges involved in caring and the need for support both from the NHS and Community. Needs will differ and change as the situation progresses.

Absolutely, Helena! Thanks for your comment. Every person has a unique set of circumstances. The Carer's needs of today have outpaced the system 'improvements' and offerings, and whilst I hope for change I have more faith in the acts of empathy and support we can do for each other - connecting online to feel less alone or within our local communities.
