I have not done a ton of lifting and transferring, and the husband has already pulled his back out. My gut feeling is no, this will not work. I feel bad as the family that interviewed me fell in love with me and started making schedules, before i could say wait wait, let me think about it. Now, I am not feeling good about it, and want to go back to them, and in fairness, this was a one week trial, and I have a day time job, and this will not bring in more money, just possibly ruin my back. If I ruin my back at 54, the caregiving becomes very limited. Advice ASAP as I need to talk to them this am. Thanks much.

Take care,
