Subject: Staying with dyslexia person Author: marO (Sad) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 14:43:35 09/17/10 Fri I am staying with an adult with dyslexia (and he is a student). Most of the time I have to do all house activities and some times I think he is leting me do on purpose. I am also a student, I dont have enough time to take care of the house all the time. Can I call my self a carer as I am doing a lot to care my mate. If so don't I need to be paid since he is a disabled person. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Staying with dyslexia person Author: Dionne (confused) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 08:35:18 09/21/10 Tue Dear Staying with dyslexia person, First I comend you for what you are doing. Secondly as a Caregiver of the elderly and disabled, I know that a family member does not get reimbersment for caring for a loved one. There is help out there if you are needing of a break, sorry if this isn't what you wanted to hear. Thirdly, as a spouse, mother of three (two of whom have dyslexia), College student, and a sufferer of Dyslexia myself I know the complications that your husband is going through and also as a person who cares for two Dyslexic children. I beg you to seek out a support group, so they can give you some ideas, I understand your frustrations, and your spouses. (!)
