No I don’t mean easier as in suddenly we are sipping cocktails on a gorgeous beach while our special needs children are happy in the resort kids-club. Like that would ever happen.I mean easier with the life we have.
Most carers eventually come to terms with their child’s diagnosis.
It took me years, although I thought I accepted it right away. Even after I accepted it, I felt dissatisfied, unhappy and restricted.
- Do you feel socially isolated?
- Do you feel your family and friends just don’t get it?
- Do you wish you had more money to do things you enjoy?
- Are you fearful of what will happen to your child in the future?
Carers do so much for very little recognition or reward.
Caring can make it hard to catch up with friends. It really does feel like you have top plan a major community event just to go out for a couple of hours….every 6 months!
Caring can also have a huge impact on you financially.
Many of us are relying on a carer’s payment, which makes it almost impossible to spend money on ourselves. It is difficult to be part of paid employment due to time restrictions or inflexible workplaces.
We spend most of time at home and we spend a lot of our time feeling lonely. We also have that fear, the one we try to push out of our minds, pretend it’s not going to happen, but we all know one day it will. We too are getting older, we too will one day be at the end of our lives. We will struggle emotionally, financially and physically only to pass away with one thought “what will happen to my special needs child”?
Wouldn’t it be cool if you had more options for paid employment?
Wouldn’t it be great to work as many days as you desire?
Not to mention that extra cash to have a regular babysitter.
Sounds like a dream right?
You want to feel happier, more confident, more energetic and you want to feel appreciated for the effort you put in for everyone else except yourself.
You want to be able to take a holiday….supported! You want to be able to pay the bills and still be able to put some money towards a plan for your child’s future.
It is impossible to plan for your child’s future with just the carer’s payment. You need a solution, or a plan to support you in your caring role, to help you set your life goals and ways to work towards them. You want to feel happier, empowered and energetic. You want to throw away any FEAR of what will happen to your child, if only you had a plan!
