Ahhh Janet, i understand what you are going through and feeling.

I am the main carer for my Aunt and Uncle, i am like a daughter to them and they are like Mum and Dad to me, we are that close.

Both are not in good health, but at the moment are plodding on with life, however i have to spend lots of time with them, i do all the cleaning, shopping, sort out their finances, provide everything really. It is hard hard going at times especially when you have a family and work full time. But we love them and do all that willingly - cant bear thinking of anything happening to either of them, they are 84 and 78.

So i really do appreciate what you are going through (we can get exhausted together!!!!!!). I also get so tired, on a Friday when i get home at 9.30 i am just about done for, try to watch TV but no chance - i am asleep in no time. It takes me all weekend to recover myself, then Monday comes and its happening all over again.

Oh dear - just read this back and it looks like i am moaning again - i am not honestly, i just wanted to say you are not alone, and keep smiling
