"You Can't Have A Zoom Class With Special Needs Kids"

I invited my cousin, Meredith, to call the show and share her family's struggle and journey with their special needs daughter and the inability to attend school. 

"We see the chaos of the world, but more than anything ...we just see the four walls of our home. There's a lot of guilt. You feel guilty if you send them ...or you feel guilty if you keep them home. There's a lot of guilt as a caregiver." 

As you will discover, however, Meredith is not only insightful and experienced as a caregiver, but she is extremely funny and a brilliant woman who designed a piece of adaptive equipment for her daughter's wheelchair to help in the COVID-19 world.

After listening to this interview ...please share it with EVERY special needs family you know. They will laugh, learn, and more importantly realize that their are NOT alone!

Non Caregiving Caller Wants To Better Understand How To Help Caregivers

One of the primary goals of our show, HOPE FOR THE CAREGIVER, is to better equip and inspire others on how to help caregivers. Carlos called the show to talk about that, and just made our day ...because he GETS it! 

You can hear Carlos' heart in his call and he is a wonderful example of those seeking to minister and care for hurting souls.

Caller Struggling With "Normal" After Losing Mother to COVID-19, Caring for Aging Father, and Husband Losing His Vision.

What is "normal?" 

As caregivers, we discover that we have to make our own normal ...and trust that we can have meaningful moments and even joy in that "normal of our own making,." 

This caller and I discussed this in this clip from the show.

In addition, as she struggled with figuring out how to care for her aging father, I pointed her to this service that Gracie and I use. We can often use technology offload some (not all!) of the monitoring components of our caregiving responsibilites.

"But We Want To Get Back to Normal."

 
As a caregiver, have you ever begged God to "deliver" you from the challenges?  

God's own people did this when the lived in Babylon while in exile. They lamented and wanted to return to their home. To get back to "normal."

God's answer to his own people may surprise you ...but in this monologue from the broadcast, we discussed how it applies to family caregivers.
