When one spouse begins needing more help, the other often quietly becomes the caregiver. At first, it may not feel like caregiving at all.
It’s making sure the medications are taken. Doing more of the driving. Helping with meals. Keeping track of appointments. Getting up during the night. Taking over the things their spouse used to handle.
Little by little, one person begins carrying more, and because they love each other, they often keep going long after they could use some help themselves.
Supporting an older couple sometimes means looking beyond the person who needs care and asking, How is the person doing the caring?
A few hours of help, transportation, companionship, respite, or someone experienced helping coordinate care can give a spouse room to rest, run an errand, see a friend, or simply be a husband or wife again for a while.
Care should support the whole family.
