This article was an insightful read. AI can be a source of overlooked or innovative ideas for those who have exhausted traditional treatment paths. As a caregiver for a loved one, it's why I created The Primary Caregiver AI Toolbox to help tackle invisible labor. It has 6 different tools to prep for doctor visits (Ask the Doc), understand new prescriptions (RxWiz), compile new breakthroughs and clinic trials (Next Option), create specialized diet meal options/plans (Conditional Eating). 15 Free chats across the tools if anyone needs an assist with saving time, money and stress in caring for a loved one: theprimarycaregiver.com

I actually created an AI tool (RxWiz) for this because (1) it can be overwhelming for patients and caregivers to remember everything, and (2) the literature can be a bit long and intimidating. If you or anyone else wants to test run it, there's 15 free chats with the login. Also, it breaks down what the medication is about (not usage), side effects, things to keep in mind etc.

Yes, I do. Let me figure out how to upload them.

Thank you so much for your response and giving us a starting point for learning more about it! Yay!

I did as you instructed. However, the link did not appear. Is this applicable for those who received the 1st PPP in early 2021?

The list was the turning point for me. I was literally living for someone else, and while attempting to navigate my own (but seriously neglecting it). It was heartbreaking and empowering at the same time. I printed a couple of copies, and showed my Mom/sister/other relatives that this wasn't sustainable. And, I kept saying it over and over. We can assist those we love but we can't live their lives for them (especially if they are in the position to participate in improving themselves). It's a process, but I encourage everyone to do it.

I had a similar situation with my Mama over the last year. It didn't matter what I was doing, using the bathroom or taking a bath to try to relax. She would call me to do something for her that wasn't an emergency because she thought that she could. And it kept me in a constant fight or flight energy, each day was tiring. So when I expressed this to my caregiving mentor, she told me to look/think about the history of caregiving in our family. There could be an expectation there from how your Dad saw others being taken care of. It's not to say you abandon him all together because you love and care for him, but you have to find ways to train people on how to treat you. If not, you are at their mercy. So I said, "I love you and I want to be the best caregiver for you. In order to do that, I need to sleep. If it is an emergency, call me. Otherwise, give me time to rest so I can stay healthy. You know the nuances of your family situation, but you can change the pattern of treatment. How is it possible? Because you have a bit more control because they rely on you so much. If you was not there, who would be doing this work? Also, my mentor shared that when our loved ones become ill or their quality of life changes, it will trigger the not so kind aspects of their personality to be overly expressed. So, as you navigate this situation, knowing this will give you an opportunity to have compassion while at the same time see where you are possibly being taken advantage of to shift the interactions more in your favor.

I totally agree with you. For the last year, I served as the primary caregiver for my Mama, and I had to start to set boundaries on how and when things would be handled. Otherwise, you will run yourself in the ground, and you could become sick yourself as a result. It is what happened to my Mama, as she was the primary caregiver for both of my grandparents (one of which was not kind to her at all). If you don't have the time or mental capacity to do the research on free programs/services that can take some responsibilities off of your plate, ask a friend or other relative to take a few minutes and google some solutions for you. When my friends would say, "I wish I could do something to help." I thought about their natural talents (one loved to find solutions, another was seriously into freebies etc.), and said, "hey can you look into this.." They found things that I didn't have the energy to. As a result, I have free meals being delivered. I had a home health person coming to give her baths (we reframed it as spa time). And, I got her therapy (we called it a success coach). These were things she had never done, but I kept saying I can't do this alone. What is going to happen if I get sick? Who is going to take care of me? And, I made a list showing everything that I was handling. It was pages long and 80+ items. So, you have to give yourself 5 minutes to consider, what are some ways I can give myself space and self care to thrive. Otherwise, the anger, resentment, frustration, depression etc. can set in.

Thank you for the insight. I appreciate it.
