A Family Caregiver Speaks Up Suzanne Geffen Mintz, Capital Books (page 8 of 8) Page 8 of 8

These are just a few of the ways you can begin to take charge of your life now that you are a family caregiver. It's all about incremental steps and small things that make a difference.

But remember, small steps over time can add up to big accomplishments and a significantly different sense of selfesteem and capability. Together these two personal strengths can help you feel more on top of things, especially if you can keep your cup of attitude at least half full.
