You can get go bogged down taking care of a loved one who is sick that you neglect your own needs. You make sure they have proper nutrition from food, yet you become malnutriton by skipping meals. You make sure they have the vitamins, supplements or "medicine" they need, yet you fail to provide your body with the necessary vitamins and minerals you need to help you handle the added responsibility. You make sure they have plenty of water and fluids, but you become dehydrated. Little do you know it, you become sick and are not aware, because your mind is so focused on someone else. Remember, the body can take but so much abuse until you are forced to take care of yourself when sickness knocks on your door.
