Caring for caregivers Caregivers don’t always think of themselves as such. They are simply the husbands, wives and children of loved ones who are ill and need help. But the truth is that caregivers often need help themselves. Support groups, respite care and good friends are all ways our community can support caregivers during trying times. coveR design Susan McBride
