[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love my job. I’m an MD and work with dementia and end of life patients and it’s just my calling. I don’t know how else to explain it. I work part time, their school hours, and am home with them when they are home, I stay home when they are sick and have weekends off unless there is some sort of emergent issue with a patient. I understand I have the best of both worlds. I will also add that if my only choice when they were not school age was to work full time or not work at all, I would have taken that time off to stay home full time with them. I was lucky enough to get 2 full weekend days, so 2 12 hour shifts as a hospitalist, and stayed in the field. [/quote] Sorry for the off topic question but can you recommend a resource for dealing with an angry, anxious elderly mother in early stages of dementia? And thank you for the work you do! There aren't enough of you around. [/quote]
