What the caregivers in this study want you to know:
-
Treat me with kindness. Treat my child like you would any other child. Compliment them, talk to them, and ask them questions.
-
To healthcare workers: I know my child best. I do this every day, this is my entire life. But I get tired and I need help. Ask me what help I need.
-
We are caught between being a parent and being their nurse. But it is worth it every day.
