I am the sole caregiver for my husband. I know there used to be a group here on MJF that are caregivers, but I cannot remember which Forum I found them on. Any help would be very helpful to me.

Bonnie, I was one of many caregivers to my parents before they passed. I cannot imagine having everything on my shoulders without help. I hope the wonderful ladies here can support you and I will pray that you find some help you can count on. It is too much for one person, no matter how much you want to do it.
Bonnie I understand where you are, kind of. My mother is 86 and other than myself and DH there is no one else here to help with her. I feel it is my place to do so, yet it is wearing me down. Lots of prayer and patience. There is a site that we have all been posting to and can't remember actually where it is. Will check on that and let you know. We are all here for you. It's a difficult job. But talking with others that are in that same position helps alot. Will get back with you. Hugs, Brenda
I cared for my dad during his battle with cancer which he lost this Jan. He came to my home to pass. I know how demanding and hard it can be. I don't know your situation, but My love and prayers go out to you
