My Caregiving Journey: From Daughter to Advocate
I didn’t choose the caregiving life—it chose me. Over the years, I became the caregiver for three of the most important people in my life: my dad, my mom, and my stepfather. Each journey was different, but they all left a permanent imprint on my heart and shaped who I am today.
My father’s battle with pancreatic cancer was sudden and aggressive. I watched the strongest man I knew grow weaker by the day, and I stepped into roles I never imagined: advocate, medical coordinator, emotional anchor. There was no manual. Just love—and the constant urgency of time slipping away.
A decade later, I became the primary caregiver for my mother, who suffered from heart disease and diabetes. Her decline was steady and filled with complications. I managed medications, coordinated countless appointments, and tried to bring comfort in the small daily moments. With her, the grief came in waves—long before she passed, I grieved the mother I was slowly losing.
Then came Parkinson’s disease. My stepfather’s decline was steady but cruel, stealing his ability to speak and move with dignity. As his world shrank, my responsibilities grew. I navigated appointments, physical therapy, financial decisions, and emotional exhaustion.
Three different diseases. Three unique journeys. But one unshakable truth: caregiving is not a role — it’s a calling. It breaks you open and, somehow, builds you stronger.
These experiences are why Myatt Professional Services exists. I understand the daily weight caregivers carry—emotionally, mentally, and physically. Whether you're a caregiver, a family in crisis, or a professional navigating the healthcare system, you need more than information — you need guidance, empathy, and real-world support.
I’ve been where you are. I understand. And Myatt Professional Services exists because no one should have to go through this journey alone.
