    Right? If he doesn't do all the work he's a bad guy, but no one else feels like a bad guy for not doing anything.

    Caregiver burnout. It's real!

    I feel bad for the guy. And I know we see it too often on 'here'. It is even more aggravating when there is supposed to have been more help. And then we get 'bashed' instead. Uuughh! Hurtful.
