Awww, from one of the very caring cargivers  :)  I thank you and wish you a great caregiver as well    :cuddle; ... Both positions are tough, and it's nice to be appreciated even when doing with your whole heart, it still is nice to hear.  So thanks again...  :flower;

What a Kind, Comment to make. My Husband, said, to Me one Day, " Your My Wingman " I asked, what He meant and He said, " Dialysis, is there, the Doctors are there and the Hospitals are, there, but they come and go, You are here, 24/7, Taking Care of Me and Making sure I'm Safe " It was a Lovely thing, to say and I will never forget it.
