Caregiving can be a 24-hours a day/7-days a week job. Caring for a senior with Alzheimer’s or a child with special needs can be non-stop. Providing care around the clock can crowd out other important areas of life. And one never knows when he or she will need to rush to the hospital or leave work at the drop of a hat. While caregivers need much more than one day out of the year to honor their accomplishments, National Family Caregivers Month will have to suffice for the time being. Use it as an opportunity to say thank-you to the caregivers who make a difference in others' lives.
