Family caregivers…
Their needs are often unheeded
Their sacrifices are often unnoticed
Their health issues are often neglected
Their daily routines are often altered
Their mental health is often shattered
Their sorrows are often unheard
Their leisure is often repealed
Their wishes are often overruled
Their vocations are often declined
Their finances are often limited
Family caregivers…
Their hearts are often brimming with sorrow
Their eyes are often filled with tears
Their shoulders are often weighed down with responsibilities
Their minds are often distracted with ongoing issues
Their hands are often extended to ask for help….
Let's make some efforts to meet their needs
Let's make some efforts to listen to their unvoiced worries
Let's make some efforts to empathise and understand their situation
Let's make some efforts to notice their sacrifices
Let's make some efforts to look after their health issues
Let's make some efforts to chalk out daily routines
Let's make some efforts to enhance their mental health
Let's make some efforts to listen to their sorrows
Let's make some efforts to get them back their leisure
Let's make some efforts to fulfil their wishes
Let's make some efforts to help them to get back to their vocation
Let's make some efforts to address their financial concerns
Let's make some efforts to care for the carers.
Their role in….
PdwCI treatment commitment
PdwCI functioning
PdwCI recovery
PdwCI well-being
PdwCI reintegration
is always supreme….
Financial support and sponsorship
