"Of course my life was impacted by Deb’s stroke – more need to support her, picking up responsibilities she used to have, so many joint/family activities now out of reach. But I also decided that carepartner is part of my identity now. (Identity is a choice!) I often say the changes to my identity are less extreme than Deb’s, and less driven by the necessity of reduced capabilities. They are in all cases a function of choice."

Steve Zuckerman, co-founder of Stroke Onward and Deb Meyerson's husband, shares insight about being a care partner or care giver in an earlier column he wrote: https://ow.ly/ZWl450Q8MHq
