Self-forgiveness and self-compassion are also forms of self-care; they will allow us to heal and, eventually, become better caregivers. Everything is energy, from our thoughts to the food we eat; everything emanates and absorbs energy, including the person we are taking care of and ourselves. If taking care of someone produces compassion fatigue, they will also feed on our negative energy, and we will harm them. 

Today, we close a cycle; we go through the final part of my story, which started this journey, this crusade I'm committed to, to change the laws that protect the elderly. We explore the rugged details of the abuse, the shady behavior, and the repeated attempts to steal and take advantage of my father's diminished state from those who were supposed to take care of him. 

In this show, as we navigate the facts that led to our current state of things, I also share the power of self-compassion and the importance of healing and forgiveness, indispensable elements of the love story that connects me with my father.
