About Us Being a caregiver can destroy us, or it can resurrect us into a life of wisdom and compassion. When my wife Linda was diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer’s Disease at age 51, both of us embarked on a journey that would reshape our destinies. To search the depths of my pain and thus discover empathy, patience, understanding and love is the path to my healing. It is my strong desire for those who share this journey with me, to experience hope and inspiration, in a community of love and support that by our choice, can be Positively Transforming. Only to the extent that we expose ourselves to annihilation can that which is indestructible be found in us
Our mission To support caregivers in caring for their mental, physical and spiritual well being and to create greater awareness for family and friends to the daily challenges all caregivers and their Loved Ones face. There is very little that is easy about being a caregiver for a Loved One with Alzheimer’s disease. However, at the center of any challenge is opportunity. Support the Caregiver was created to illuminate the opportunities within each of us and to turn this time of hardship into one of profound growth.
