I felt powerless when the doctors said there was nothing they could do for my wife. In our chase to find the best care for her, we moved away from our children to live close to a hospital that offered the right level of care. After her stroke, I had to step up and take the role of caretaker, which challenged my ability to work and support us. My emotions kept bottling up, but to manage the overwhelming challenge ahead, I suppressed them and battled on. Eventually, the hopelessness and depressive thoughts started taking over my mind, draining my energy.

See how I found strength and inspiration in how my father cared for my mother to show the same level of care for my wife. This helped me settle into the role of caretaker despite the stigma in my environment. Learn how opening up to my brother allowed me to express the suppressed feelings I was carrying. Combined with prioritizing time to recharge through activities and socializing with friends, I managed to keep a clear heart to continue caring for my wife and have the energy to work to support us.
