My caring has also caused family conflict but it is getting better every day as my parents understand things like having to cancel on arragements at the last minute. <BR/>Less contact with friends does get to me but at least there are few I can still pick up the phone to and chat with although they tend to be less understanding about last minute cancellations. <BR/>Loss of freedom to pursue my own interests is also a problem but I do procrastinate alot too so I sometimes think if I wasn't caring that not alot would be different in those respects. <BR/>I also feel like only other carers are some of the few that understand. There do seem to be a few good blogs about and suppose quality over quanity. EdAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
