    Also I hope I’m not overstepping but I would really suggest some supports for you. Not kidding.

    Caregiving (which is what you’re doing) can be incredibly difficult and it can have a severe lasting effect on your physical and mental health.

    Particularly for informal care which doesn’t have built in protections, supports, or breaks for the person doing the care. Particularly if it’s someone you’re close to. Particularly if everyone else is stepping back and putting the onus on you to manage everything.

    Don’t do this alone.

      Definitely not overstepping. Reaaly thankful for the advice. Honestly atm I’m open to all of it and really appreciative of everyone here and their thoughts.
