1. While a certain amount of stress is healthy, worrying constantly, even about trivia, can wreak havoc on our mind and body in the long run.
2. “I need something to worry about — a stopgap maybe — till the real one shows up.”
3. Suchi isn’t a standal WORRYWART.
4. Darn, add that to the worry list!”
5. “My super worrier mother told me to expect the worst, so when it happened we would be prepared.” 1 What if nothing did? “It’s a happy surprise!” Crazy!
6. Yeah, we can worry about any topic. Wish there's a way to outsource it.

10. I know a family that takes turns basket cane “worry chair” and rock.

12. But there have been cases where Alzheimer’s patients have been consigned to old-age homes.
13. He says nonchalantly: “A parent who is both old and suffering memory-loss is a double problem… more than my wife and I can handle.”
14. A friend, who has septuagenarian in-laws, asks Annapurna about the “burden of being a caregiver”. A mistake!
