Survey Says . . .

Categories: Odds & Ends

First I want to thank all of the wonderful participants in the TLeC survey for your time, votes and many kind comments. You gave me much food for thought, and I am grateful for the honesty of your feedback.

The Results

The overall format of this blog won’t change radically in the coming year. I will continue to bring you a mixture of “how-to” information about caregiving, inspirational quotes, and the ever-popular Funny Fridays to keep us all laughing. I will be adding more interviews with family caregivers, like the one I did with Lori Hoeck a few months ago. (If you are currently a family caregiver and would like to be interviewed for this blog, please use the contact form above.)

I will also be writing more about some of the very real concerns you shared with me, such as:

  • Juggling time commitments between our families and our caregiving responsibilities,
  • Being prepared to handle unexpected health or financial issues our Golden Oldies face,
  • How to avoid making caregiving “mistakes”
  • Sharing caregiving responsibilities with siblings
  • Being a long-distance family caregiver

And answers to many more caregiving questions you raised in the survey.

I know it will be a busy and exciting year ahead for us! Thank you for your loyal readership and participation in the TLeC community!

    All five of those bullet items sound great for folks to learn about. “Avoiding caregiving mistakes” — Yep, that’s gonna be a good post!

    Hi SpaceAgeSage — Lori,

    It looks like I’ll have to make some true confessions when I write the cargiving “mistakes” post(s). LOL

    Hi Helene Moore,

    Glad I was missed and that I can help you. You do the same for me, with your encouragement and loyalty, so thank you,too!
