I have decided to become a caregiver after my mother passed away. I took care of her while she was sick. It was sad to see her health decline little by little to eventually become totally dependent on me; I felt her sadness, her frustration, and sometimes even her anger. It was difficult for her to accept her deteriorating physical condition and her helplessness; she had to swallow her pride to ask for help and to accept help. I took it all in with deep sadness...... After my mother's passing, I feel a much stronger sense of compassion for the sick and the elderly; I want to help them make their daily struggle a little easier and at the same time, help them maintain a sense of dignity that we all value dearly.
