Home Care Services Alpharetta, GA

Poor Sleep

As people age, their sleep patterns can be disrupted, causing them to wake up multiple times during the night. This can be due to a shift in their internal body clock, stress, or worry. If dementia is a factor, you may need to be vigilant, as sundowning and wandering could occur. Caring for your parents or a loved one requires a clear and rested mind, which is why getting enough sleep is essential for both your well-being and your ability to provide the best care. After all, you don't want to get so burnt out and tired that you take a trip to the hospital. Avoid getting burnt out and exhausted, as it could lead to a trip to the hospital.

Elderly Care Alpharetta, GA

Lack of Support

Taking care of aging parents can feel overwhelming and like you're shouldering the entire brunt of responsibility. Moreover, thinking that you're the sole caregiver can be stressful and put unneeded strain on other relationships in your life. It's crucial to understand that caregiving is not a one-person task. Trying to handle it alone can lead to burnout, depression, and other serious health issues. It can also negatively impact the quality of care your parents receive.

Senior Assistance Alpharetta, GA

No Privacy

Living with your parents can affect both your physical and emotional privacy, especially if one or both need significant amounts of attention. This can lead to feelings of fear and disorientation when you're not around. Similarly, it can be challenging for your parents to maintain their own privacy while you're taking care of them.

Whatever Texas basketball's deficiencies are, the Longhorns can make up for in toughness and resiliency

With five games remaining, Texas basketball can will itself to an NCAA Tournament berth with sheer grit and determination -- something that Rodney Terry's club can't be questioned about.

Eric HenryFeb 15th, 9:21 PMVIP

AUSTIN, Texas – While Texas basketball has struggled with consistency throughout the rough-and-tumble gauntlet that is Southeastern Conference play, the Longhorns' toughness and resiliency aren't up for debate.

Down Arthur Kaluma, Texas' leading rebounder and second-leading scorer, the Longhorns found enough scoring and playmaking when it mattered – beating No. 15 Kentucky 82-78 on Saturday night, ending a three-game skid.

Guard Tramon Mark, whose seesaw season has encapsulated the Longhorns' year, gutted his way through aggravating an already nagging groin injury, finding a season-high 26 points.

BB's Bagels fire brings out loving community

BB's Bagels, the beloved Forsyth County eatery, has closed its doors after a massive fire tore through its building Sunday night. The family who runs the place says their loving community showed out in full force, donating over $25,000 to a GoFundMe in less than 24 hours.

The Brief

ALPHARETTA, Ga. - A popular Alpharetta eatery was heavily damaged after a fire broke out late Sunday night.

What we know:

Cellphone video captured the fierce flames and black smoke shooting up from the fire at BB’s Bagels in Alpharetta on Sunday night.

The owners of the restaurant say the back of the building was heavily damaged. Video from the inside shows the destruction. In one area, the roof has holes allowing the sun to peek inside.

Anna Siino and her husband Eddie have owned the bagel shop on McFarland Parkway for nearly two decades.

As news of the fire spread, there has been a huge outpouring of support online and on GoFundMe. Organizers raised more than $25,000 in less than 24 hours.

The Siinos say the fire hit while they were not insured. They say a few months ago, their policy was canceled when their insurer pulled out of the market, and they were still in the process of finding a new carrier. They say the money raised from the GoFundMe will go to helping rebuild and payroll.

Firefighters say the blaze was difficult to control because natural gas lines fueled the flames.

The building was empty at the time of the fire, and no injuries were reported, according to officials.

What they're saying:

"The fire was worse than we thought it was," Anna Siino said.

The fire destroyed what the couple had worked years on, but what was not destroyed was the love of their customers.

"It was so much more than just a place to work, we're a family, we're a community," Siino said. "Reading their responses really hit us hard."

Long-time employees say they are grateful for the support.

"Most people live paycheck to paycheck in this building, and it's going to affect a lot of homes, a lot of our families. It's devastating, there are no words," said employee Dale Cardenas.

Customers were devastated to hear about the fire.

"It gets packed in the morning, and they do a great business, and I hope they get back on their feet pretty soon," said Stephen Evans.

What we don't know:

The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
