Anyone else caregiving at present?

Seems I've been thrust back into the role of caregiver for the 3rd time in my life. Both other times they were in the house with us (my in-laws). This time it is my parent. Luckily we are able to have a sitter with him in his own home. Still there are the meds to keep up with, groceries/supplies to purchase, doctor visits, and so much more. I make at least one trip per day (25 miles one way), sometimes two. I'm just getting to a point where I can skip a day occasionally. One of several siblings, I am the only one "at home" presently, so this running, etc. naturally falls to me. Just wondering if any of you are at the same point in your life? Seems to be more and more common amongst my age group, but takes some juggling when one still has children at home.
