National Family Caregivers Month

"Every day, family caregivers across our Nation are caring for loved ones who are aging, chronically ill, or disabled. Through their selfless actions, they bring comfort to those in need, enrich their own lives, and reflect the true spirit of America." So begins the proclamation that US President George W. Bush signed November 4th declaring the month National Family Caregivers Month.



Every seriously ill person needs one or more caregivers to help deal with medical problems and day-to-day tasks. Spouses, parents, children, loved ones, friends and more. We cheer you all.
