What to Do When Caregiving Finally Ends

Dear Cherished Community Members,

Many caregivers feel lost after their care recipient dies--not only because they are grieving the loss of a loved one but because they are mourning the loss of what has been all-consuming and often gratifying role. How should caregivers prepare for their post-caregiving lives in order to find a new sense of purpose? To stimulate your thoughts, please see my article below. Take care, Barry Jacobs
