Interview with Fred Blain on The Gospel Highway Radio,
"Let's Talk About.." On WNAP Radio 1110 AM
It was my pleasure to be on the, The Gospel Highway Radio, WNAP 1110 AM, Let's Talk About with Fred Blain. It was aired on Sunday, March 17, 2019. He was a gracious, considerate host and made me feel very comfortable talking about my passion, the non-paid caregivers of our community. The questions Fred fielded were thought-provoking and kept me on my toes. Thank you, Fred, for having me as a guest on your show. The link above will play the interview in it's entirety. Thanks for listening in.
I hope you're enjoying our New Logo and Look. She's quite the Shero, isn't she? Doing her day job and her superwoman cape always ready for action. Thank you to my friends at G-Town Tees, for their design, t-shirts and table runner displaying this powerful logo.

BOOMERS 'R HEROES!!!
The “baby boomers” of the world have quite a legacy to carry out. We are now the “Sandwich” generation caught between having raised our children and caring for our aging Parents. There’s an ever growing need to juggle much more than we ever dared to think about.
As many of us enter our mid to late 60s or more, we are faced with extremely tough decisions which may also include our elders and spouses' long-term care and now facing a need of care for ourselves. Nothing is guaranteed.
BOOMERS 'R HEROES provides a safe place to download from the stress and strain of taking care of everyone else, including pleasing your employers, while managing not to neglect yourselves in the process. You are important, too! You need to feel free to voice your fears, your needs and seek self healing in a nurturing environment; sharing with those who are currently and have recently walked in your shoes.
Help is available, it’s all around you…but you have to seek it out. You have to ask for it. You need replenishment and validation.
That’s why BOOMERS 'R HEROES was developed….to help you seek help for yourself….to get a respite from your care-giving duties, thereby, regaining a positive life perspective. Your voice, as a caregiver, will be heard.
My name is Jean and I am a Hero....and so are YOU!!!

We "Boomers" are now the "Sandwich" generation and we need to learn to take care of ourselves in order to be there for our family members who need us.
"To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did". When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better.
Concentrate on this sentence: "The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you." Something good will happen to you today, something that you have been waiting to hear.
Just 27 Words, 'God our Father , walk through my house and take away all my worries and illnesses, and please watch over and heal my family; in your name, Amen.' This prayer is so powerful, pay it forward and pass on to your friends and family with love.
