In fact, I have often pointed out that that is probably
a grieving process for the caregiver that they just may never have thought about because I can tell you, like I say, from caring for my mother, that the thing that was so very difficult is that mother was already leaving, even though she hadn't left
You know, I mean the mothers that I knew for you know, for example one of the signs that I knew that something was different was when I went back home to
the family home where we grew up and I saw looked around and I saw, Oh my god, I don't my mother could have easily been autistic and had O C D because that woman kept that house spotlessly clean for the longest time and I saw spiderwebs hanging from the ceiling?
My mother just never would have tolerated that, you know, so I mean some of that, yeah, later on I understood that was kind of the beginning of some real changes for mother.
You know, so so as you begin to to realize things like that, you can find yourself in that space, Oh my word, that's not mom anymore.
You know?
And that's like one of the first parts, it's like, Oh my god, I'm caring for this woman and I don't even remember I don't even know who she is anymore.
It can that can be a very difficult part of caregiving and taking you through the grief process you may be experiencing.
And you know, we certainly don't want to forget to mention the autistic caregivers who wind up caring for their spouses at younger ages.
I've known my show people like in that kind of a role.
that is very difficult to be in and I think it's worth saying that, you know, the advice that we're giving for others you can apply it to your situation too.
