Millions of people all over the world are caregivers, spending their own time and energy to help a loved one with an illness or disability function on a daily basis. In my case, it means caring for my wife who is in need of a new set of lungs.

Whether it's caregiving, a career change, wanting to be a starting pitcher, or just getting through today, there are commonalities in the struggle to achieve. In this episode, I've tried to share everything I know about how to fight the good fight. I hope it can help anyone who needs the help.

Be well out there, everyone.

A new year is difficult for your everyday caregiver to look forward to. In this episode, I'll look to the past for clues as to how to carry on into the future, with a little help from Van Halen.

Happy New Year, my friends. Be well.

Trigger Warning: There is some talk of physical abuse and trauma in this episode.

This version was arranged, performed and recorded by me. The previous month was a lot of stress about the impending holiday season. A great deal of that anxiety was channeled into finally making my own version of my favorite Christmas song. I hope it can bring you all a few minutes of peace.

From me and Ethel to all of you, Merry Christmas.
