May I call your attention to a good resource for CGs? The Well Spouse Foundation is " an association of spousal caregivers" which publishes a newsletter called "Mainstay". Several people have recommended it to me, so I thought I'd pass on the info. Annual memberships of $25.00 for an individual in USA ($30.00 outside US) include 6 issues of the newsletter. They also have a website: www.wellspouse.org They have an online "virtual community" which sounds a lot like the CARE list, and will soon have a live chat room. Check it out and tell us what you think of it ? (I haven't yet, but plan to when I can find time!)
