As part of caregivers series this week, we asked you to share your stories of caregiving with us. Today we bring you one of the true listener stories that we found particularly moving.
Frank Medina cares for his mother-in-law, who suffered a stroke in 2010. Medina and his family decided to put his mother-in-law into a nursing home, but found that she wasn’t getting the care she needed in the facility. His wife decided to bring her mother home, putting everyone into the role of caregivers.
