Waking up today after weeks of caring for sick and elderly parents.
This is real life, people. As everyone ages, our *jobs* as caregivers are vital.
Be an advocate for those with no voice. Medical advocacy is something I am very passionate about.
Our elderly become 'invisible' and infantilized by society and I truly believe this **is wrong**.
If you are so blessed, *you* will also grow older. Your body will betray you, but your mind will hopefully stay the same.
If you have a loved one who is older and the health care system is ignoring them- **SPEAK UP FOR THEM**.
My dad is ALIVE NOW because I did. My mom, ditto.
I would never wish these things on anyone. Be the voice when others cannot.... hopefully, someday someone will also pay it forward for *you*.
