Woke up thinking that one of the greatest gifts that #RosalynnCarter gave us was language for things that had been in the shadows. Removing stigma from #MentalHealth challenges and naming the joys and struggles of #Caregivers ultimately giving us words to make us feel not alone.
Rest in Peace Mrs. Carter... Thank you for setting an example of living a life of purpose. You were a beacon of light to so many in need. May we strive to continue your legacy of bravely advocating for those in need of care and for caregivers themselves. #thankyoumrscarter
