Dear friends...

This autumn quarter in Adult Bible School we are planning to do another class on "Caring for the Caregivers" for people who are caring for family members with special needs, whether elderly parents or other family members who need special care.

Although we have done this course once, we are rethinking what to include and what format this will take, and as caretakers, past or present, I wonder what would be most helpful to all of you. That is, what areas would you find it most helpful to discuss? What kind of things would be most supportive and encouraging to you? What kind of information do you need? I am planning to ask Bruce Gunther, for instance, to talk about legal matters: power of attorney, wills, living wills, etc.but I am sure that there will be more information that would be helpful, I'm just not usre right now what that might be.

I anxiously await your input!

Thanks,
Cora
