I joined in on an online caregiving group today. I realized it has been 2 months since I had participated. The last time I talked with them, we were in the midst of trying to find a good place with good people who would take good care of my dad. As I caught them up to date, I realized how much has changed since then. I wouldn’t say things are “easier”, but I do feel things have settled to some extent. Even though my dad got COVID and struggles abound, I have more peace. Perhaps it’s because there are so many people now keeping watch over my dad and I don’t feel alone in the situation. Perhaps it is God’s grace. Perhaps both – or more. Whatever the case, it was helpful for me to talk about this part of the caregiving journey with people who completely understand.

I Found God today reflecting on the recent caregiving journey.
