Visit SHARE YOUR ADVICE

ShareTheCaregiving has been compiling (disease/condition specific) caregiving advice from Share The Care groups and patients to pass along to help other groups supporting someone with the same or similar challenges.

Our first installment focuses on ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) from the perspective of a family caregiver who has extensive support from a large Share The Care group known as “Peg”s Legs” and the patient, Peggy Chun, a well-known artist in Hawaii. Peg’s Legs has been in action since 2002 and we believe you’ll find their advice and what they’ve accomplished not only exemplary but extremely moving as well.*

We welcome your feedback. Please pass this information along to others who might benefit.

Currently we are seeking ADVICE from groups caring for an Alzheimer’s patient as well as groups supporting parents with children who are ill. (Click here for information on how to submit your GROUP ADVICE for consideration.)
