There was a lady on the radio this morning who had twins who were born prematurely.

I think they're around 12 now.

And the girl needs 24-7 care.

They had to redo the garage attached to her house so that she could sleep downstairs.

And then the son has been recently diagnosed with autism and she's a full-time carer.

And you just couldn't see that this too will pass.

You know, you couldn't see any light at the end of the tunnel for that woman.

So platitudes like this too will pass, probably irk her.

They'll probably really annoy her.

Yeah, probably.

Probably.

But I'm sure that, because you have to, you have to find a way.

I mean, whether that is, you know, whether you get your half an hour and you can go for a massive big stomp

And that's only half an hour out of all the other hours.

But you have to find little moments, I suppose.

Like, I'm sorry, I'm not in any way giving somebody advice in that situation because that sounds incredibly, incredibly tough.

No, but you hit on what's important.

Respite.

And that's what she was calling for.

Yeah, that's so important.
