Temporary Delay
Hello. Mo here . . .💜 We know you’ve been waiting and we’re so grateful for your patience. The Caregivers Connect Course won’t launch Sept 1 as planned. We’re sorry for the delay—think of it as a rain check for something worth the wait. More details coming soon, and we’ll walk this journey together.

Time is our most valuable asset
I cared for my dad through his journey with Alzheimer’s a path filled with heartbreak, deep love, exhaustion, and unexpected moments of grace. It taught me that time is our most valuable resource, and that every day even the hardest ones matter because there will be time when they won't be there with you anymore. My Dad will have said goodbye 3 years ago this October. Connection during this time of caring for him was key for me. I couldn't relate to many in my life during this time and found the importance where others could not understand what I was going through as well as my loved one so I found groups much like this one. It made a big difference because it is important not to be isolated. You must care for you too. Today, I find myself connected with many others walking this same road. Whether you're a full-time caregiver, supporting someone from a distance, or just starting to notice changes in a loved one, you're not alone. Let’s take each day as if it were our last with compassion, and courage. Make every memory count! And do not forget to document your story. I have plenty of memories that I can reference back because of active journaling and taking lots of pics.

Wow! These are such beautiful pics! This journey is super rough. And you know it first hand like most of us in this group. I can't believe it's been 3 years already! Thank you for being apart of Caregivers Connect and willing to share your story, your growth and your healing in this now new journey of managing the loss of your LO. 💖And I must say, you were a major support to me during my journey of caregiving for my dad and you still are as I now begin my 3rd journey in caring for my mom. THANK YOU PAM!!! I love an appreciate you so much!!

@Pamela Wilson you know they say, what we go through in life is for the next person behind us. We know I was behind you and learned from you. And seeing get through it and still adjusting is hopeful for me. I don't always feel so hopeful. I'm getting there.
Understanding Your Role as a Caregiver
In the session of Caregiver vs Caretaker we posed the following questions: - Have you ever felt like a caregiver who turned into a caretaker by Tuesday? - What’s one thing you love about this role… and what’s one thing that drives you bananas? - How do you recharge your battery when caregiving gets real? Please share your thoughts. We are looking forward in chatting with you.

In the beginning, I didn’t realize there was a difference between being a caregiver and a caretaker—turns out, I was both. Overnight (probably on a Monday after getting the news on a Sunday 😅), I became a full-blown superhero… cape, coffee, and all. One of the best parts? When my LO (first my dad, now my mom) would say, “Thank you” or “I love you.” That hits you right in the heart. The not-so-fun part? Sundowning. Agitation. Sometimes even physical aggression. Yeah… those moments are tough. And let’s talk about recharging: for many of us, it looked like hiding out in the bathroom. If you were flying solo, you couldn’t just go for a walk. Bathroom time = sanity break.
Welcome
Hey there, and welcome to Caregivers Connect! We’re so glad you found us. 😊This space is all about YOU—the strong, compassionate, sleep-deprived, snack-sharing superhero you are. Here, we share stories, ask real questions, support each other, and laugh when we can (because tears and coffee are a team). We’ll also drop practical tips to help you care for yourself—and yes, some will even help your loved one too! Start by telling us a little about your journey. And if you feel up to it, post a pic of you and your LO—we’d love to meet both of you. ❤️

I'll go first . . . I'm Molinda. Everyone calls me "Mo". I began caregiving to my dad in 2009. As time progressed, his illness, dementia, required me to become his fulltime caregiver from 2020. In Nov. 2022, I had to resign from my 16 yr job at Marriott International, to be home with my dad 24/7. My dad recently passed due to complications of dementia on June 10, 2025 at the age of 88. But I'm still not done! My mom was recently diagnosed with vascular dementia in Nov. 2023 officially. So, I took care of my grandma (Dad's mom), my dad, and now my mom. In this pic, is one of my sisters, my dad and my mom.

My name is Molinda. Everyone calls me Mo. I have many gifts that God gave me, but my main gift is being a caregiver to my parents.
