2019 New Year’s
Resolutions for
Caregivers
Taking care of a loved one is
difficult, time-consuming, and often
heartbreaking labor. It takes a
physical and also emotional toll on
those providing care. For this reason,
caregivers often feel they cannot
take time, especially around the
holidays, to work on their wellness.
“More than half of the caregivers
we serve report high or very
high levels of emotional stress,”
says Sheila Williams, Program Director
for Sunnyside Community
Services. The program Ms. Williams’
directs, CARE NYC, focuses
on caregivers whose loved ones
have Alzheimer’s or dementia—
an estimated 390,000 New Yorkers
care for a loved one with these conditions.
Caregivers: In 2019, make a resolution
that helps you reduce this
stress.
1) Resolve to make sure you share
one fun activity with the person
you’re caring for each week. Make
sure you balance stressful caregiving
tasks with enjoyable ones.
2) Make time for the doctor’s appointment
for yourself that you’ve
been putting off. Remember: you
need to be physically well to ensure
the person you care for is, too.
3) Join a support group or seek
out other caregivers in your community.
Finding others who share
similar experiences can provide
comfort.
4) Ask for help. There are organizations
across New York City that
exist to serve caregivers, including
Sunnyside Community Services,
which assists caregivers of loved
ones with Alzheimer’s and other
forms of dementia in all five boroughs.
You can learn more about
this free program by calling 877-

Only god can judge him now.
Cops on Monday cuffed a guy for
peeing on and breaking two statues
outside a Williamsburg church on
Dec. 2.
The 28-year-old Bushwick resident’s
arrest came roughly a week after
Borough President Adams promised
to hand over hundreds of his
own dollars to leaders of Our Lady of
Consolation Roman Catholic Church,
after the man allegedly urinated on
two statues and knocked them to the
ground inside the Metropolitan Avenue
house of worship’s courtyard
around 4 am on the fi rst Sunday of Advent,
the Catholic Church’s four-week
season leading up to Christmas.
Surveillance footage captured the
blasphemous act — the sixth time in
nearly as many years that suspects
vandalized the church between Berry
Street and Bedford Avenue — and
helped authorities ultimately locate
and cuff their suspect, offi cials said.
Police slapped the guy with charges
including damaging property, aggravated
harassment, and urinating in
public, for the incident, which they
deemed a hate crime, according to authorities.
