Thank you for sharing what has helped you, and your experience about your grandmother. It must be hard at times supporting her but it sounds like you’ve found lots of things that work for both of you.

These are great suggestions for all caregivers, but especially for casualmetaphor’s situation. It really is normal to feel overwhelmed and these strategies can definitely help. I especially like the dollar store calendar idea since money can be a real challenge when you’re a caregiver.
