Looking for a support group meeting in my area. Any suggestions?
I am the sole caretaker for my husband who is 61 and progressing much faster than I was expecting. I am looking for a support group in my area Brick NJ 08724.
Contact your state's Agency on Aging (or Council or other name). In our area they have run some groups and classes on dementia. And keep in touch. Burnout is no fun.
Look where you don't expect it. I found my group which is offered by a big health insurance company. The thing is, they aren't my health insurance company. I called them up and confirmed that their support groups are opened to all, whether they provide your health insurance or not.
