Care Partners Only
This group welcomes spouses, adult children, and friends of those living with LBD. Topics include a wide range of issues, raised by group participants.
- discussions cover the entire spectrum of LBD disease progression
Occasionally community professionals offer presentations on pertinent caregiving practices and resources. These twice/month meetings balance LBD education & exploration of daily strategies with support, rejuvenation, & inspiration for Care Partners. As airlines remind us: “It’s important to first put your mask on before helping others.”
Support Groups are being held via Zoom platform. Coming soon, in-person Central Florida options will be made available.
Early LBD Conversations for “Care Partners“
Specifically offered for care partners of those who are in the process of diagnosis and/or early stages of LBD.
This Support Group is a good fit for you if:
- your loved one is in the process of diagnosis and it is most likely LBD
- you and your loved one have just received a diagnosis; what do we do now?
- you have been a care partner for a while and need to focus on issues that pertain only to early stage LBD
Support Groups are being held via Zoom platform. Coming soon, in-person Central Florida options will be made available.
Early LBD Conversations For “People with Lewy”
Just as care partners need moments set aside to speak frankly about “life with Lewy” from their perspective, so do those who are diagnosed with LBD.
This Support Group is a good fit for you if:
- you wonder if you may have LBD
- you have had a recent diagnosis of LBD
- you are in early stage of LBD (even if the diagnosis was several years ago, if you are still living fairly independently, this group is for you)
Meeting together with others who can absolutely relate to the experience of LBD can be liberating and strengthening.
