Maz's Carer Blog*

Caring: I'm maz and my blog's about the struggles and positives of the average Carer...me! It's not all gloom and doom. I care for my husband Coo, who has Nocturnal Epilepsy (sleep seizures). Coo's had them for 41 years and we've been married for 33 of 'em so it's not exactly a new experience for either of us!! I hope by visiting, other Carers will feel encouraged to share their experiences of one of the most challenging jobs there is!
