Today was the monthly caregiver's Zoom meeting facilitated by Parkinson's Resources of Oregon. This organization has been a lifesaver for me offering advice, virtual conferences, and the monthly support meetings with fellow caregivers. It is a way to listen and learn from others taking care of a loved one. We can compare notes on health issues related to Parkinson's, share ideas, remedies and at times vent our frustrations. In many ways, I have learned more from these people than the medical professionals we have dealt with, and at no cost.
At some time in our life, we will all be called upon to be a caregiver to aging parents, a sick spouse, or a child.
I didn’t realize they were holding these meetings digitally. That is great.
