An offer I can refuse.

I've been offered an opportunity to become a part-time paid care-giver. In large part because I have the experience. I spent 13 years as my dear Jeanne's care-giver. When she had Alzheimer's. Initially, I hated the job. It took too much out of me. But eventually, I learned how to handle it. And I became proficient. And quite compassionate and understanding. Really. I actually enjoyed caring for Jeanne. But I'm not sure that I'd want to become a hired care-giver. Actually getting paid for it. I might do it voluntarily. For no pay. But I think there's something wrong about becoming a paid care-giver. For me, that is. --Jim Broede
