Rites of Life Part 8: The Caregiver




This is the most powerful story so far in the Rites of Life series. Its about Lisa Dibble, a woman that became the caregiver literally overnight for her two parents. Both parents are diagnosed with dementia with Lisa becoming their caregiver. It's been an overwhelming stress for Dibble who was brave enough to let us into her life. She shared her story with us in hopes that it would bring better support for caregivers. For her sake and the sake of anybody else in a position similar to hers, I hope so too.

Check out the blog to read the story and see the slideshow (which is the best so far) at www.theritesoflife.blogspot.com
