Episode 8 Caregiver Challenges with Shelagh and Doug Winkler
An unspoken challenge in illness is the stress it has on families and those who are caregivers.
Each of my radio shows is recorded in my dining room. My guests and I connect to the studiovia skype or phone. My dog Oliver insists on sitting on my lap during each show. Once I sit in the chair with headphones of, he will actually jump and whine until I let him on my lap. He is a “kijiji rescue”. The last owner said he was two years old, but after a visit to the vet, it is now believed he is about eight. Oliver had 23 teeth removed right away due to a serious infection and since then he has grown more hair (seriously, it’s more than two inches long!) and his heart murmur has disappeared. He gained 1 ½ lbs, making him now a full 7lbs! We believe he is a Chihuahua Papillion cross. His hobbies include long walks, playing ball, running around like a crazy dog, chasing the cat and hanging out with his family.
