			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-730" title="DSCN4435" src="http://takingcareofthefolks.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/DSCN44354-225x300.jpg" alt="DSCN4435" width="225" height="300" />In honor of National Caregiver&#8217;s Month, I too, wanted to sponsor a contest. </p>
<p>There will be 3 chances to win.  The Grand Prize will be this lovely gift basket courtesy of Lambs and Ivy Gift Baskets containing  pampering items for the care giver, such as Karen Neuburger body lotion, chai tea, Godiva chocolate, notecards, an iTunes gift card AND my Caregiver&#8217;s Companion Medical Organizer ( a total value of $100.00). </p>
<p>2nd and 3rd prizes will be $25.00 iTunes gift cards.</p>
<p>In order to enter, please leave a small (or large) story about WHY you are a care giver.  What compelled you to take on this challenge ?  Why are you giving up a major part of your life when you could easily (or not so easily) hand the job over to someone else?  What is your inspiration for getting through the day and navigating through all the care giving tasks and trials?  Why do you not just throw up your hands and say &#8220;I&#8217;m DONE!&#8221; </p>
<p>On the other hand, what joys do you receive from this role?  If you are a current OR former caregiver, what is it that you are most proud of accomplishing?  Would you do it again? </p>
<p>I hope to hear from many of you because I know that you have wonderful stories to tell. </p>
<p>(Enter by November 20th in order to be entered into the drawing.  Winners will be announced on Thanksgiving Day.)</p>
