Hi all,

I created a great support page on Facebook for the strongest people I know - caregivers.

"'Eye of the Storm' is a page created for caregivers faced with the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual stress of taking care of sick and dying loved ones.

Through your emotional distress, exhaustion and anxiety I hope this page will help you find peace and serenity, which in turn will revitalize you and make you a better caregiver to your loved one. xo"

Please add it! https://www.facebook.com/pages/eye-of-the-storm/274680289255933?ref=tn_tnmn

MUCH LOVE ALWAYS :)

It sounds like a supportive site Karrisa although you don't mention if you're a carer? just wondered if thats why you set it up x

Hi there, thank you. Yes I am 26 years old and have already cared for 3 loved ones! Quite a task. But I've learned a lot and want to help others. Especially my generation who its so unusual for! Hope you have a great day. And thanks so much :)

Karissa!

So glad you made this page! i am a caregiver to my ill mum whom will need liver transplant soon. I am also 26 yrs old, i have been a carer for her for 3 years now. Very demanding task, my life isnt the same as your average 26 yr old as you would know.

I dont know any other carers my age so its comforting to know that there is and i have someone to talk to and relate.

All my energy goes into my mum that sometimes i dont even think i can maintain my relationship anymore...

Anyway hope to talk soon
