Over the span of two decades author, columnist and speaker Carol Bradley Bursack cared for a neighbor and six elderly family members. Because of this experience, Bradley Bursack created a portable support group, the book “Minding Our Elders: Caregivers Share Their Personal Stories.” Her sites, www.mindingourelders.com and www.mindingoureldersblogs

 

This gets very hard. There is help, but the person would probably have to be declared disabled by Social Security. Please call your local mental health organization and see if they can help. They may have some options meanwhile.
