Default You and hubby are in our thoughts and prayers

Dear Ms Ann,
I agree with so many of the kind and caring previous respondents...
Reference and background checks are not optional, of course...
Meeting and interacting with the caregiver (you both choose) prior to a
Confined journey with a 'stranger' again, no brainer...
There are people who would accept A CRUISE as the bulk of compensation.
Depending on the level of cares and responsibilities determined by you
And hubby; THE TRIP ITSELF, along with a small stipend would be beyond
Generous compensation. It does not sound like you are asking for a 24/7
Indentured servant. To me, it sounds like you are seeking someone to share
The caregiving role; in a way that allows the three of you to enjoy an amazing
Vacation together. These things are all negotiable and should be a comfortable
Fit to meet the needs of each of you.
Never be afraid to seek help. I hope you will accept help, if offered.
Please make time for and CARE for you; as soon as, and often as possible.

Thank you Amy, Yes we do all of those things. Things are not really bad right now. Just looking to future. It looks like we may be getting close to the no traveling zone. But that is Me not Him. I get so exausted with the packing and unpacking and driving etc.

Any way for now it is going to be just family or friends who are used to him and know what to expect.
