As a caregiver her entire adult life, Elizabeth Miller has learned how to find the joy in the caregiving life. As a Certified Caregiving Consultant, she helps other caregivers make the best of their own experience. Elizabeth joined forces with her siblings to provide support for their parents, and for her developmentally delayed brother. Each sibling brought his or her own skill set and strength to the care. Elizabeth played the role of primary caregiver, sandwich caregiver (caring for parents and children simultaneously), and remote caregiver (providing support from a distance).
After the death of her father, Elizabeth and her siblings moved their mom and brother Tom closer to where she lived. She describes the impact of that caregiving as stressful, overwhelming, isolating. It affected her mental and physical health in negative ways. Elizabeth learned how to care for herself and set boundaries to maintain her health while she cared for the health of her family and her mom.
