Is "nursing"/being a carer a important part of being a dev?

[Melina26]

I feel like I'm the type who likes having to assist him all the time. My boy is a C4, the C I always dreamed of haha and when I'm with him I have to do everything, usually feeding, giving him drinks, his medicines, opening doors...but funny thing is that I wish I could help more, bathing, dressing, but he doesn't let me do those yet sad dev haha I really enjoyed the one time I got to help to change his t-shirt and lift him on the lift to put him in bed. Guess he didn't like it cuz he never lets me do it again. It scares me a bit to think of being the sole responsible for his well being, but as long as we have carers for the serious stuff I'm ok.

such an interesting revived old thread! love it! so interesting how we are all different in our devness.

for me: caring / helping is not part of my devness at all! I could not imagine having a partner who needs me assisting him all the time, would be a complete turn off for me.
