Close Grandparents Raising Children
In May 06, our 10 year old grand daughter came to live with us. Our son, her father is unable to care for her properly and her mother was married to an abusive man who dreadfully abused our wee one. We have had her in therapy since 8/06. She has been hospitalized 2 times so far. This is all due to the abuse she has suffered at the hands of her parents and stepparents. We are trying hard to get her the help she needs and offer her all the love and support she deserves. It is difficult at times.
Close Caregivers
hi, i am a 52 year old female. i am married to a pwecious 62 year old man. we have been married for 15, soon to be 16 years, in august. on our 5 month wedding anniversary, we were in a near fatal car wreck, on new year's eve. that changed life as we knew it. now we are BUSY raising a 12 year old grand daughter. her parents, one being our son, are not able to care for her. so i am a caregiver for my husband who has post polio, plus other issues. my issues, and the grandbaby's issues.
Open Polio
I am the wife/caregiver of a precious 63 year old husband who has post polio syndrome. He had polio in the 1952 epidemic, was 7 years old, and was in the hospital for over year, not expected to survive. We have been together over 18 years, married for almost 16. We have shared harley rides, mountain climbs, 4 children, 15 grandchildren, we now share PT, breathing machines, leg braces, and being parents again to one of our grands. We care for each other and try to stay close in spite of the pain.
