how can we cope with care when every one thinks we are burden

[Chris From The Gulag]

Hi Andrew ... welcome to the canteen.

Been that way ever since I became a carer ... back in the autumn of 1997.

When meeting fellow carers , they said the same since they became carer themselves.

And that takes the clock back to the early 1970s ... prior to the word CARER reaching the statute book ...
and Invalid Care Allowance.

Imagine .. or best not to ... what caring was like prior to that ?

Some out there might cite the Care Act , 2014.

In reality , it might have as well stayed a pipedream for all the REAL good it has done for us.

Fast forward to 2019 ... what's the problem , Andrew ?

running out of money everymonth

Join half the carer army with that ... 3.9 MILLION ... and that unholy trinity ... EAT / HEAT / ROOF.

Caring in 2019 ... half the carer army below / at / close to the Official Poverty Line.

The price to care ... for low millions !

Have you met our Lord Kitch ? ... he spells it out perfectly :
