in Caring for a Parent

Would anyone be interested in doing a Zoom meetup in the evening? I ask because, at least where I am, there are absolutely no caregiver support groups that meet outside of normal working hours.

(When my mom's doctor recommended one to me and I told her I can't because I have a job, she was confused and asked "You couldn't go on your lunch??" I'd love to know where are these jobs that people can take a 90-minute to 2 hour lunch 🙄)

    Hi, am definitely interested in zoom support meetings. Please let me know how I can get connected. I have tried to find emotional support groups with others who are caring for a parent who has dementia. My patience is running thin and I have zero support to talk about it with others who are dealing with the same. I have tried to find a zoom meeting on this site and unfortunately there is nothing available.

    Please let me know,

    Thank you!

    I am very interested in a zoom meeting/support group after work hours. Has anyone set anything up yet? What's the best way to go about getting this set up? Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help get this up and running.
