Celebrate National Caregiver Month at Costco

This is sponsored content written by me in partnership with Depend®, Poise®, Cottonelle® brands and Costco®. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

To celebrate National Caregiver Month, I’m delighted to be partnering with the outstanding Kimberly-Clark brands Depend®, Poise®, Cottonelle® and my Dad’s favorite store, Costco. We have a great surprise for you all, so stayed tuned and keep checking my Facebook page @caregiverwarrior.

I’m always happy to be involved with companies such as these because their products made my caregiving journey so much easier. As every Caregiver Warrior knows we don’t have time to second guess the products we chose for our loved ones. We need consistent, reliable quality. We need to be able to choose once, then never have to choose again. Being able to rely on Depend® and Cottonelle® products for my Mom when she was in the hospital and then hospice, took the edge off my devastating sense of heartbreak and concern because I had one less worry. I knew she was wearing and using products that kept her safe and comfortable. Anything to alleviate the feeling of helplessness we experience as caregivers is a godsend and I truly am grateful for the design and comfort these products offered my family.

I was working full time when I cared for both of my parents and as many of you know firsthand, time was of the essence to me. I think I got my Ph.D. in time management! Consolidating tasks, managing work and health care issues, shopping and keeping and scheduling appointments had me spinning like a top. I was constantly being thrown off my course so anytime I could accomplish multiple tasks on schedule I was a relieved, happy Caregiver Warrior!

Shopping at Costco and being able to do one-stop shopping for food, supplies and quality products like Depend® FIT-FLEX Underwear for Women Poise®Ultimate Absorbency Pads and Cottonelle® FreshCare Flushable Wipes while my Dad ate his favorite hotdog (and filled his cart with Holiday powder puffs which were not on the shopping list!) was a saving grace.

 I can still see my Dad laughing and cutting up while we shopped together. So not only did I save time and money, I still have the gift of all those wonderful memories of my Dad and our special time together.

Caregiving is never easy. It’s heartbreaking, exhausting and intense, yet fulfilling and rewarding in ways that are miraculous and life-changing. Caregivers are angels on earth.

 So, it is with sincere pleasure that I join the wonderful Depend®, Poise®, and Cottonelle® brands and Costco in telling all of the Caregivers out there that we are thinking of you this November and always. We know how hard you work to make those you care for safe and sound. We thank you for all you do and celebrate each and every one of you!
