Is there anything local? Looking for a support group for people who care for family members that are chronically ill, disabled or have other physical issues.

I found some locally but they were for Alzheimer's or dementia patients.

Thanks!

I would check at the hospital or local churches. I wish I had found one when I was taking care of my mom when she had cancer and than again with my grandmother. I think as caregivers, we need the support. If I hear of anything I will let you know. or you could always start one, I am sure there are lots of people in need.

Thanks, Martha. I'm sure they exist here. Just gotta find the connection. I checked and the churches have some but they are for other things.

I checked with your Houston News and there was quote a list but none for this particular group.

I may PM Perfection, she knows a lot about that stuff.

Sifi, you really are an angel, aren't you- I'm seldom wrong about these things- after all, I'm an oracle-

There is a daytime caregivers support group at Northeast Hospital for those who are responsible for the care of a loved one. Call Chaplain Nancy Parsons at 281-540-7852. Source
Also some of these might meet their needs and are local, if not in area then the contacts listed may be able to help. Big list

Sometimes the social workers at some hospitals can provide some helpful information.
