Caring for Your Family
  As our population ages, caring for the family can place demands on our time from every directions.  Our jobs, home duties, children and spouses need our attention as well as our aging parents.
     When dealing with our children, the role is clear.  Caring for parents or other loved ones is an entirely different matter.  Usually, there are medical, emotional, physical and financial demands.  But also, for you, there may be the difficult transition to caregiver.
     This site offers links to medical information as well as support groups that may assist you in caring for yourself or a loved one. Sometimes, just knowing that someone else is in the same situation as you, can be a help in itself.  I hope that you find this service useful.  Best wishes to you and yours.
