Quotes by Kate Washington (?)

“I'd estimate that my caregiving in the summer of 2016 took up at least thirty hours a week and likely more. For the first several weeks after Brad's discharge I was on eight to ten phone calls a day related to his care. ”

“What chafed the most was not the private demands from my husband, but the public, official ones from nurses, doctors, and therapists, many of whom seemed to discount my personhood in any other realm than as a caregiver. I wanted them to recognize my humanity. I felt, on every level, unseen in my life, even as I was holding together the lives of four people. The longer I acted as a caregiver, the angrier I found myself at that erasure.”

“I once received an Explanation of Benefits statement showing that the billed services for a few weeks in the BMTU were more than $3 million. It seems shocking that the medical system can't spare dollar figures in the thousands to pay for professional in-home care. If a medical professional tells the family that the patient has a medical need for twenty-four hour care attendance, as Dr. T did, it doesn't make sense that that very very attendance is a noncovered expense.”
