Gap in employment
I left my previous position to care for my mother who had dementia and was in decline. I took care of her until her death. Employers view this as a gap in employment. I can reassure any employer that this was a 24/7 position, which I chose to take on.

Hi Josephinw Sacco - it is really admirable to take time off and away from your career to take care of your mother. I know how hard that can be. You aren't alone - many others do something similar when a family member is ill.
Check out this conversation about getting back to work after taking time off to care for. family member. I think that it will help!
