| Caregivers often need physical, emotional and financial help. |
A reader recently
wrote: “Our daughter is on disability and
has been for several years. She has been critically ill since June 15,
2014. I have had the full responsibility of her care her whole life
but especially these last few months. We are completely tied down and have been
the whole summer. Can I be compensated for the care I give her?”
Our best wishes go
out to anyone in this situation. We know providing lifetime care to a family
member is not only physically and emotionally draining, it takes a financial
toll, too.
