Hosts: Starr & Bob Calo–oy

Today was a wonderful show with stories and advice about caregivers’ guilt. They ministered the families of the patients, discussing their feelings and the hurt in their hearts. This very subject inspired their first book “The Caring Caregivers Guide to Dealing With Guilt”.
There are many types of guilt: The guilt of Broken Promises such as “Mom I/we won’t put you in a nursing home”. The guilt of physical abuse. Sibling guilt, rivalry, and now with caregiving old things come-up. Guilt from revengeful thoughts and unforgiving. Guilt from wanting your loved one to die, from inconvenience and long suffering…undeserved guilt. Guilt resulting from a hard heart, and you are using it as a defensive measure. Guilt resulting from emotionally not being able to visit, feeling that their loved one is going to confront them (why aren’t you visiting more often where have you been?), or the parent or patient will plead and hang on to them when they leave.
Thanks for the heads-up Bob, and you too Starr! These things can be heart-wrenching and are so very personal. God Bless you both for your loving hearts.
