Affirmation for January 25, 2011: Alzheimer's and Caregivers

There are only four kinds of people in the world - those who have been caregivers, those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers.- Rosalynn CarterThought of the day:Today, we'd like to recognize caregivers, especially those for people suffering from Alzheimer's Disease. January is Alzheimer's Awareness Month, and our hearts go out to the patients who are faced with this degenerative, and often terrifying disease. And we wonder at the spirit of the caregivers: not only do they have the normal challenges of life that the rest of us face every day, they take on the additional responsibility of someone else's quality of life. These real-life angels work to maintain the well-being of our sick fellow human beings, and we should all take a moment to say a collective "thank you" for their extra efforts.TeamDS
