Hello, my name is Julie. I’m married to a disabled vet and I’m 44 years old. I’m my moms soul caregiver. I have been caring for her for about 4 years now. I moved her in with me for numerous reasons. My little brother passed away about 14 years ago at the age 29 and sadly my older sister has no interest in helping and is too busy. It’s been a struggle since the beginning for the obvious reasons but also because I have a life long battle with epilepsy and now my new health issue having to do with the veins in my brain, I’m currently scheduled for brain surgery on June 16, 2023. I’m more then willing and more then happy to be caring for my mom but having no help it gets overwhelming, way too much for one person. I do always find a way to make things work out though. My one daughter does currently have a gofundme going to try to get some help with the expenses of my upcoming surgery but it isn’t going well. I’m not looking for anything other then hoping my story well some how help at least one other person to stay strong.
