Anyone who’s flown on an airplane has probably heard a flight attendant say, “Should the cabin lose pressure, oxygen masks will drop from the overhead area. Please place the mask over your own mouth and nose before assisting others.”
If you can’t breathe, you can’t adequately assist someone else.
Often caregivers and families of people with a serious illness become so focused on caring for their loved one that they neglect their own health and well-being. If you aren’t taking care of yourself, it will become very difficult to take care of someone else. Remember—you are your own caregiver. When you are at your best, you can better care for those you love.
