Thank you attorney Rick Law:
In the Ten Absolutes for Caregiver Decision
Making, Absolute #6 says: Never Endure, Instead Cry. As a caregiver, it
is okay to cry. It’s even okay to cry together, so try going to visit
your loved one armed with some tissues. Instead of a strong façade, cry on
their shoulder like you would have 10 years ago when something awful happened.
If they’re upset as well, I think you will be surprised at how likely your
loved one is to stop crying, and comfort you. We know our loved ones want
to help us feel better, and this gives your visits value – he gets to “fix” you
by holding and comforting you. Trust me, it will be healing for both of
you.
