[quote=Anonymous]I took care of a severe disable relative, including spoon feeding, diaper changes, help to get up of chairs/bed and move around, etc. It is very draining. I am also an introvert. But one of the things that kept me sane while doing that was the visit of friends and family members. I had a family member who would come once a month to spend a whole weekend here and bring boyfriend, boyfriend's son, her daughter and dog - it was wonderful to have all those people around, cooking, drinking, talking, watching movies, grilling, etc. To me, it was a chance to "see people" and socialize whiteout having to find a care taker in advance, spend big bucks on it, and have only a few hours out to watch a movie or whatever. But again, they were my family and friends. Maybe I would feel different if they were strangers. [/quote]
