  1. I have the right to prioritize my safety—physical, emotional, and spiritual.

  2. I have the right to feel angry, sad, frustrated, or numb—and to express those feelings safely.

  3. I have the right to say “no” without explaining myself.

  4. I have the right to ask for help without shame.

  5. I have the right to rest, to laugh, and to live.

  6. I have the right to set boundaries and enforce them.

  7. I have the right to grieve—before, during, and after their decline.

  8. I have the right to protect my peace, even if others don’t understand.

  9. I have the right to be more than a caregiver.

  10. I have the right to let go when staying becomes too much.
