@maxineperkinswordsmith: Before you question a caregiver for taking a trip, going out to eat, or getting a little time away, ask yourself what you’ve done to help. Caregivers pour out every single day, and most of the people doing the talking are not helping physically or financially. We need rest. We need respite. And we should not have to explain every little moment of joy. Be careful how you judge caregivers, because one day you may need one—or become one yourself. #CaregiverSupport #CaregiverRespite #Maxine #CaregiverLife #StopJudgingCaregivers

If you don’t take time away from, somebody will be your caregiver because your health, physical or mental will start to decline. People will talk, which means they’re watching from the sidelines.

You don’t owe anyone an explanation. You can join me on a cruise anytime to give yourself a break. The nerve of some people

You don’t owe anyone an explanation, especially those who have never been a caregiver or offer help. It’s a tough, selfless job and you deserve a break, too. I applaud you for caring for your family members the way that you do and God will bless you indeed 💯
