I had the opportunity of helping my mom back on her feet after going through major surgery. My experience this time was far better than the first time, because I have the skill set of watching in fascination and compassion as my brain was freaking out and offering me all sorts of scenarios. I hope you learn something from my experience. Download our FREE guide on how to get started as a spousal caregiver. Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ReThinking                )

My Experience As A Caregiver The Second Time Around - Esther Mbabazi

One of the most important and “neglected” things in the early stages of a cancer diagnosis is the Living Will.When someone is diagnosed with cancer, their chances of dying before their spouse rise up tremendously.(Not all cancers though). A living will is a legal document that stipulates the medical wishes of someone when they are no longer able to state their wishes themselves. For example, whether they would like a feeding tube inserted; whether they would like to be put on a mechanical ventilator when they can no longer breath on their own, whether they would like intravenous nutrition etc. The absence of this document can put a huge strain on the family because many times family members don’t agree on what to do; causing rifts in families that may never heal

An Oncology Nurse Talks About Cancer - Esther Mbabazi

Captain Niloofar Rahmani is a pilot in the Afghan Air Force. Although there were female helicopter pilots before her, she is the first woman in the history of Afghanistan's military to fly a fixed-wing plane. The 23-year-old takes charge of cargo planes which are used to carry people and supplies to conflict zones. She was inspired, she says, "by my father's dreams." After Niloofar's story was first publicised she began to receive threats from the Taliban and others in Afghanistan who thought her career choice was inappropriate for a woman. First Officer Esther Mbabazi is the first Rwandan woman to qualify as a commercial airline pilot. As the daughter of travelling missionaries her ambition to fly was formed as a 4-year-old passenger, entranced by the on-board crew and atmosphere. Now at 26 Esther regularly flies routes all over Africa but sometimes her passengers say they won't fly with a female pilot. She tells them that they're "welcome to jump off, and good luck getting a refund!"Presenter: Kim ChakanetsaPictures:Niloofar-Rahmani. Credit: Shah Marai, AFP, Getty Esther Mbabazi.
