Are you living the dream of our forefathers who fought for our freedom? Maybe freedom meant something very different to them but, for all of us, doesn’t it come down to what it states in the Declaration of Independence – life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness?

I’ve been a caregiver for 15 years now but it’s kicked into high gear over the last two. While there’s no question that being a caregiver is exhausting and oftentimes frustrating, it’s also helped me figure out some important life lessons that I probably wouldn’t have known otherwise.
