Recommendations for an excellent support group/forum for care takers

[Jonesburger]

Hello everyone,

I am starting to get a sense my strong,loving, supportive husband could use a good support group or forum. I would love for him to find a group like this one where he can just be a silent observer and learn a lot or if he does post a question, he would get a reply.

Can anyone recommend such a group?

Many thanks,

Jonah

Hi Bettybuckets - that’s a great idea but I don’t think I have the wherewithal to start one :-). Maybe If I wasn’t too fatigue from my drugs I might give it a go…

I’ve seen posts on this forum from husbands, partners, brothers, sisters and daughters so I was hoping if they saw my post and had a support group they could recommend, they might point me in that direction.

Hi. Am am supporting my wife so I'm in.the same boat as your husband. There are a few Facebook groups, not specifically for support of care givers but lots on there. Try "always hope" on Facebook, it's a good bunch. Plus I pop up on here time and again, you lot are always lovely to me, maybe your hubby could do the same? Wishing you all the best of luck. XXX

I do see some husbands on this particular site that seem pleased.
