I am 31years old and have been a stay at home mom for 13 years. I have 3 children who are all in school now. I have also been the primary care giver to both my inlaws before their passing. They both had several diagnosis and along the way I educated myself and learned quite a bit. My father in law was diabetic, had heart problems and kidney failure. He was on dialysis for 6 years 3 times a week before we lost him. My mother in law who has only been gone for a short time suffered from Copd, arthritis, bradycardia, and dementia. The heart problem would have not came to light if I hadn't chose to document vitals throughout the day for personal records. After noticing the issue I brought it to the doctors attention a d she got a pacemaker.
