Cared Out

I read an interesting article which talked about being "cared out" or suffering from "compassion fatigue." The dilemma was first studied in the 1950's with the nursing profession and what they have discovered was that this malady manifests itself in real physical and emotional symptoms. You suffer from fatigue, stress, anxiety and you are less hopeful. It has been identified in lawyers, caregivers, physicians, psychologist and those who work in natural disaster relief.

There are many who are just recently experiencing this problem with the turn in the economy. So what do you do to help with this malady? It was reported that Four-legged Fatigue Fighters are the best! Actually any pet. They provide humor, unconditional love and when you are tired of taking care of everyone else there is someone in your life who is never tired of taking care of you....

Hence, Enzo Ferrari....you'll see and hear more about him in future blogs....but what I can tell you is, he is a beautiful chocolate brown, had gorgeous eyes and nice big feet.
