Online support group for caregivers
My mother is caring for my father, who has Parkinson's and Lewy Bodies Disease. She is getting worn. We are all giving her as much help as we can. She has enjoyed going to a support group over the past 2 years, but has found that her situation is the most 'advanced' of those represented in the group.
Do you know of any organization offering support group(s) by phone or skype for caregivers? I believe there is a need for this - and would consider starting it myself, if I could engage the right professional/etc.
Any info on this would be helpful! Thanks!
