Thank you, Kenny. Lotsa Helping Hands looks like a very nice resource. Most of the long-term, non-critical caregiving families I know have few support systems in place, unlike those experiencing short-term crisis caregiving. Many have walked alone for so long that they don’t have the energy to consider finding help. Thanks for sharing!

I thought your readers who are building their circle of helpers may want to add Lotsa Helping Hands to their toolkit. Family caregivers can get respite and relief from tapping into the many offers of help they receive from their circle of friends and family by creating a free, private community. The service includes an intuitive group calendar for scheduling meals, rides and other daily activities as well as community sections (well wishes, blogs, photos) that provide emotional support to the family.

I look forward to your future blogs. Thanks for what you do!
