National Family Caregivers Month
President Bush declared November 2008 as National Family Caregivers month. We would like to extend our well wishes and Thanks to all those that take care of our loved ones. Whether they are being taken care of in their own home, in special care facilities or hospitals, the wonderful folks that take care of them hold a very dear place in our hearts.
Caregivers can be husbands & fathers, wives and mothers, sons, daughters and nurses and nursing assistance and the list goes on. You need to pamper yourself and take care of yourself too! We know how special you are, but do you? Don't ever think that what you do is 'just a job' as it is way more than that. You are the ones with the loving touch, the simple smile and more, that make our loved ones know they are being cared for when we can't be there. Each day you need to take a few moments and smell the roses!
When was the last time you had a relaxing bath? Where you filled the tub with really warm or very hot water and just sat there and soaked, undisturbed? With candle light? and soft music? Close your eyes and cover your face with a dampened cloth and just sit back and relax. Stay as long as you like and tune out the world. You deserve it. Don't have time for a bath? How about a foot soak and a little foot massage?
Gathered From the Garden has some great products to pamper yourself or to give to caregivers to show your appreciation. Check out our website: gatheredfromthegardenllc.4t.com for more ideas.
