ATTENTION new members of "Parkinsn" list -- this may interest you and
your CGs!
>>>>-----------------------***********************----------------------------
>CARE (Caregivers Are Really Essential )is a sublist of the main PD list,
which is especially for caregivers (CGs) of Parkinsonians (PWPs). The need
for such a list was evident from feelings expressed on the PD list that
there are times when CGs need to be able to "let off steam" in a place
where they will not upset their PWPs. Some of us have caregiver support
groups, where
we can safely express feelings, get practical support, and share
experiences but some do not. The CARE list serves this need, but DOES NOT
shut off the participation of CGs on the main list. We operate through a
listserv at Miami University, Oxford,Ohio. This is a closed list, meaning
that CGs who wish to join should send a request as follows:
Address your COMMAND to: [log in to unmask]
IN BODY of message (NOT on"SUBJECT" or "TO" lines) put ONLY:
SUBscribe CARE your first and last names
Do NOT use a signature.
Instructions will then be sent to you as to how to proceed, when you have
been added to the list. List "co-owners" are Jeff Jones and myself. The
traffic on CARE is a lot less than on the main list, if this is a
consideration.
Welcome aboard! Questions? email me or Jeff:
