What do heart disease, diabetes, asthma, cancer, dementia, kidney disease, and hypertension have in common? On the surface, not much. But from a family caregiver’s point of view? Quite a bit actually. Because they’re all chronic conditions meaning that they’re long-lasting health problems that require ongoing medical attention.

And often, ongoing care from you.

That’s why we’re focusing on chronic conditions in this Caregiver Conversation by Carallel. Join us as we talk through the day-to-day realities of supporting someone with a long-term illness, the challenges that can sneak up over time, and simple, practical tips that can make caregiving feel more manageable.

In this Caregiver Conversation by Carallel, we’re exploring the emotional, practical, and relationship pressures families face when considering a transition to full-time care. There’s no one “right” answer — only what’s right for your loved one and your family.

But figuring out what that is can be one of the most excruciating parts of caregiving. This is an open and honest discussion about the doubts, the fears and guilt that can surface, and some ways to move forward with clarity, compassion and confidence.

Join us as we discuss how to ease your inner dialogue and offer tips to make the process (at least a little bit) easier.

Come enjoy Live music with us as we welcome The Fond Memories Association!

This month, Camille’s Memory Cafe will be held at The Carver Center for families.

Hope to see you then!
