First virtual meeting with local support group today

My local Aging Matters helped to get me subscribed to a caregiver support group. They do not meet in-person currently, but there is a virtual meeting at 2 that I am planning to call-in to. This will be my first time meeting with the group. I'm really thankful that I have this resource now.

    I  hope it was a good experience! Talking to other caregivers was a lifesaver for me.

    Glad to hear it. I have really enjoyed the few times I've been able to join my local support group. I get more information here, but feel supported by those ladies.
