Article: Reduce Holiday Stress: 10 Tips for Children of Elderly Parents

The Holiday season can be a stressful time for anyone, but it can be especially stressful if you are the caregiver of your elderly parent. I read a great article on AOL Health's section, about how to reduce stress during the Holidays:

"Caregiving is a 24-hour-a-day job. It's tough even during "normal" times of the year. With the holidays comes a whole load of responsibilities and demands. Shopping, baking, decorating, sending holiday cards, family gatherings, preparing for out-of-town guests. Even fighting for that coveted last parking spot at the mall can be stressful.

It can seem impossible to cope with your overburdened life. However, not only can you get through the holidays, but you can also enjoy them and create fond memories that will last a lifetime. Consider the following suggestions to ease stress during the holidays." Click HERE for the rest of the article.
