Thank you, Blessing for your work 'merging heart with hard data to address the pressing challenges of caregiving'. THIS article is essential reading and a vital Call to Action. Thank you for the references and statistics. I'll share these and your article with others.

I want to share that Financial handcuffing, Emotional gaslighting, and Verbal Abuse are common themes I've encountered in online carer forums. Online virtual communities and empathy are lifelines for isolated caregivers. They help them see beyond their situation's confines and seek expert support.

I hope we can empower ALL caregivers and their allies by raising awareness and sharing resources/information from experts —as you've done here and in my publication Carer Mentor.
