I learned that nature is a healer for a caregiver's body, emotions, psyche and spirit. Mountains, lakes, turtles, air, snow, flowers, soil, smells, sky, moon, sunsets, stars, sand, birds, deer and rivers all do the trick.
I spent months writing my memoir Living on the Verge of Insanity outside in my tent cabana with Charlie the African Grey on the arm of my chair. We saw foxes, ground hogs, deer and even a coyote pass quietly by. Sometimes I felt like I was in the movie Fantasia!
