Have you noticed when you or someone you know buys a new car you start seeing that care everywhere? Or maybe that color care shows up everywhere and even though you know that car or color existed before you never noticed it until then? That's how it was with cancer after my husband was diagnosed. Once we found out he had cancer everything around us had to do with cancer.  It was as if the universe said - oh, now they know - so now their life feed will be 100% cancer messaging.  It was everywhere we went to try to relax!  Every time we watched TV it felt like every commercial was about cancer.  Cancer treatments Cancer studies Cancer marathons Cancer telethons. It was cancer season on tv. Characters on tv shows we liked watching got cancer.  Famous people seemed to be getting cancer diagnoses left and right. It felt like it was all around us! I'm sure it wasn't any more than it had been before but it was like buying a white car and then only noticing white cars. I remember going to an action movie, which felt safe to do, there was no mention of cancer so we didn't even think about that being part of the story but of course it was there. What I feel was a pivotal moment was when we went to a comedy club and the comedian started telling cancer jokes. There were maybe two jokes but they stung.  My husband was sitting across from me and we both looked at each other and that was when we could have decided to go into so many directions at that moment. We could have just started to cry and break down right there. Finally succumbing to what felt like the universe just continuing to throw cancer in our faces.  We could have gotten indignant and mad and left in the middle of the set in a huff. OR worse yet taken it out on the comedian and heckle him. We could have not looked at each other and ignored it altogether. We didn't do any of that though. We looked at each other and we laughed. Not at the comedian. Not at the joke but at the fact that we just couldn't get away from it.  It was a shared connection between the two of us. We both communicated through the look on our faces and were just so connected in that moment that we both knew what we needed to do.  Out of all the emotions I could have thought back at, this the one that has stayed with me is how warm and loved it makes me feel.  I don't remember how loud it was or the people we were sitting next to. I vaguely remember the club we were at or who the comedian was.  What I remember is how good it feels to recollect the connection we had. The look we gave each other that said it all without saying it. The shared experience while coming to the topic from two different angles. At that moment we were in it together equally. It was us against the world that apparently wanted to throw cancer in our faces until something happened. And it did. We decided that it wasn't going to break us.  That we were going to do this together and somehow we were going to get through to the other side of it.  Things didn't get easier after that but it was as if that moment planted a seed of strength in both of us that helped us get through the next phase of his cancer treatment.  We both chose to be positive that night. There are so many different ways to respond to the world but we knew that at that moment the best way for us to move forward was to find a way through together.  And after that, cancer stopped showing up everywhere.

Those that we care for are people and sometimes we lose sight of that. No, I get it… you know they're a person. But do you always see them for the actual person they are? I've talked about turning off the caregiver switch so you can connect with the person you are caring for.  Let's take that one step further to how we regard that person. How do you think of them now that you've been caring for them for a while? Do you still do things with compassion and empathy? Or do you just do them?  Can you still do things with love when the fatigue sets in? If not then that is a good thing to know. You can do something with that. I know that after my husband comes home from surgery I start out his recovery period with a sense of purpose. I might be tired after being away from home and from the stress of him having to have another surgery but I jump right into gear and make sure he has what he needs. Let's keep it simple. Out of all the things he needs help with one of the things I always make sure of is that he keeps hydrated. I don't worry too much about his appetite, especially in the beginning, but I know he needs to drink. I do a variety of different things for him throughout the day bringing up different types of beverages each with a different purpose. One to make sure his electrolytes stay balanced, one that includes a specific type of honey to help his immunity. Cold drinks and hot drinks and everything in between. Just to make sure he is getting what his body needs. I'm exhausted while I do this but I just do it without a thought and take it to him. However, a week later I might start getting cranky about it. I might start wishing that I didn't care so much about if he had something to drink.  That turns into - why can't he just come down and get it himself? Which later turns into a - Here! Make sure you drink it. And then turns into - He didn't freaking drink that! Why do I even go through the trouble! That can dangerously edge towards - screw it… I'm done… I don't care if he drinks anything today. Let him get dehydrated I don't care. I say dangerously because once you get to that point it's a slippery slope.  This is the point where it really isn't about the drink. It's about the fact that you are tired and overwhelmed and it should be concerning because this is when you've already begun to see them more as a person you have to take care of instead of a person you love that needs your help. I'm not saying that you have to flit around the house cheery and singing and float into the bedroom to deliver to them what they need. But your thoughts - as good as you think you are in hiding them - come out in your actions. The person you care for knows when you are irritated. It shows in how we speak to them. How we do things. Even the expression on our faces. There are so many subconscious ways we communicate what is going on inside of us that they might not even notice how they know but they get the feeling that something isn't right.   The problem is, if we don't notice what is happening and realize the path we are taking as a caregiver and as a person who loves the one we are caring for, then we don't course correct. If we can't course-correct then our relationship with them starts to suffer. We start to suffer and no one is happy. I don't know what your relationship was and is with the person you care for, but I care for my husband because I love him. That is my why.  When I start to feel like I am doing things because I have to, when I start procrastinating when I find myself weeping over a pot of tea…  I know I need a break, I need to reset. I've neglected myself because all I had the energy to do was to take care of him. I get it. I should always be on top of my self-care because that is what I tell you you need. I could very easily come on here and tell you I don't have any problem with being on top of my self-care 100% of the time but that would be a load of crap.  I often struggle with self-care because I am a caregiver. It's as simple as that and it's important for you to know. What is equally important is - because of my self-care I am resilient… I don't break down as often as I could and I can see the cracks early enough to be able to self-correct and readjust. When I know I need to reset I do just that. I'll get out of the house and take a drive to a coffee shop or just around town and back - mostly because at this point I don't want to interact with other human beings.  I'll take a nap in a different part of the house where it'll be quiet and I can be alone.  I'll get on the phone with a friend because I probably haven't talked to anyone in a few days. Or I'll take a nice long hot shower or bath. And while I'm doing these things I plan on what I'll do next for myself and when. That way I don't keep slipping back into that place of resentment and overwhelm. Because this isn't about tea. This is about staying connected with the person I care for because they are a person with feelings too.  You don't have to understand what they are feeling and going through. I know that my husband would love to not have cancer and have to have surgeries multiple times a year some years. I know he would love to be able to do things for himself all the time. He would love to not feel like crap and most importantly…. He would like to not feel guilty when I take care of him… I love him…  and I sometimes forget it's not all about me. I forget that it's easy for me to get into my head, focus on only what needs to be done and worry about the things I have no control over. I forget about the things that actually matter - Finding beauty in the world when things feel the darkest, allowing a place for hope and faith to reside in me when I want to shut it out, and enjoying my life with my husband no matter what phase of illness and caregiving we are in.  I get it. You might be thinking - I can't handle the stress of caregiving, all the tasks I have to perform, all the visits I have to take them to, all the times I have to bathe them  AND Remember to love them! Yes, that's what I'm saying. When we stop caring about a person because we are too focused on caring for them we distance ourselves from them.  Just think about that for a moment. You spend so much time caring for them that you've become overwhelmed with the things you need to do and have lost sight of the actual human you're caring for.  Too stressed out about all the doctor's appointments you have to make today to actually sit next to them for 15 minutes and just chat. Too worried about the surgery they have to have next week to give them the nice long hug you both really need. Too overwhelmed to tell them that you love them! Don't lose sight of you why. I'm guessing the love you have for this person is why you care for them. When remembering that they have feelings becomes difficult. When knowing they could really need a hug or for you to just hold their hand for a moment but decided you are too busy, too tired or can just do it later. When you yell at them, give them an attitude or make them feel bad about something they need for you to do. It's time for you to take a break. Find someone to talk to. Ask for help.  It means it is time to find a different way of doing things for them and finding ways to do more for yourself.  It's all under your control..the way you see your world, the way you react to stress the way you respond to people. That's all you. There is a lot you can't control that is going on in your life.. but these things you can and in turn you can make your loved one feel loved or not or whatever that is in between.  Remember the person they were before they needed you to care for them. See if you can recollect the way they made you feel.  That person is still in your life. You might have lost sight of that while doing your best to keep them in the world with you. We spend so much energy fighting, advocating and researching to find ways to make sure they get the care, the doctors and the treatments they need that we lose sight of the fact that  They  Simply Just Need Us!

This episode features 'Living with Dying a caregivers guide' with Jahnna Beecham and Katie Ortlip. I had an opportunity to chat with these two amazing women When I was asked to consider doing a Dragonfly Radio interview with them from DMPR, I did some research on the book. Jahnna Beecham and Katie Ortlip wrote a book "Death for Dummies" which I loved. I asked myself where was this book 10 years ago? when I was watching my own parents pass away. It has been made reference as "Death for Dummies". An excellent caregivers manual from start to finish. I would suggest this book to any caregiver, or individual whom may be at end-of-life planning. Thank You Jahnna & Katie.

Author Jahnna Beecham & nurse Katie Ortlip, LCSW began as friends and neighbors. However, when Jahnna’s 90-year-old father was told his prostate cancer had spread to his bones, Jahnna became his caregiver while Katie became his hospice social worker. Together, during this emotional time, they became even closer and shared insights on end-of-life care as well as how to have the best death possible, and their joint writing journey began.Their new book: LIVING WITH DYING: A Complete Guide for Caregivers is a comprehensive field guide for those caring for a loved one at the end of life. It is straight forward and easy-to-use, providing tangible, fact-driven advice for overwhelmed caregivers juggling full-time jobs and the their own lives.The book, which has been reviewed by oncologists, hospice doctors and nurses, instructs readers how to have the conversation about end of life wishes and concerns, and navigate the emotional and spiritual journey with their loved ones. It offers clear instructions for giving the best care possible including how to control pain, address symptoms, and understand the dying process.Katie Ortlip, nurse and hospice social worker, gives valuable information about the benefits of hospice and the myths that surround it, while Jahnna Beecham shares her often-humorous journey with her father.According to AARP, there are more than 40 million people in the U.S. who are unpaid caregivers. Most are un-trained volunteers doing the best they can to help a loved one in their final journey. Living With Dying is a road map that will help those 40 million navigate that sometimes bumpy, often confusing trip. Visit Katie and Jahnna and learn more about their work at www.LivingWithDying.com
