Walking in their shoes

FOUR CORNERS
Another great report on some Australians who are doing far far more than their fair share of genuinely mind and body breaking caring. Surely in this day and age Governements can provide relief ( if not the sort of devotion that was evident there)
RUDD, ROXON and MACKLIN - put in place the mechanisms that should be there to give relief – and make sure they are effective and build into a sense of confidence for carers ---that its not just ”dumping their loved ones ”. Clearly the carers have a good idea of what caring for them entails ....and its not just a bucket or a recipe .


Maybe the loudest "give give me's" , haven't always been the most needy either- how elese do you explain their isolation from effective help .
