I just sent the note below to the author of the article on Caregiving. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KF Etzold 09/18/98 12:32 PM To: [log in to unmask] cc: From: KF Etzold/Watson/IBM @ IBMUS Subject: Article on Care Giving I notice with interest your article on the issues facing Caregivers. The article makes extensive mention of Caregivers for Alzheimer's patients. I would like to point out that similar if not the same issues are faced by those who are caregivers for People with Parkinsons disease. These are probably the most numerous diseases with patients requiring help by Caregivers but surely there are others. You article was posted on the Parkinsons Forum run by the University of Toronto. There is a good deal of mention there of the problems caregivers face. Indeed most of the "posts" there are by caregivers. K-F Etzold, CG
