Becoming a carer can be a physically and emotionally exhausting
task and although there is help available many carers do not have
the time to look for it or know who to contact. This indispensable
guide aims to be a one-stop-shop for the huge percentage of the
population who, now or later, find themselves in a caring role,
whether that involves shopping for a housebound neighbour, or
giving up work to care full-time for a disabled child or confused
parent. This book will also help carers care for themselves. It
looks at the difficult feelings that go hand in hand with caring,
including how relationships are affected. There's guidance on what
to do when a carer stops coping, and how to prepare emotionally and
practically for the time when caring comes to an end. There is also
an extensive resource section that arms carers with all the phone
numbers, addresses and websites they need. Contents: Foreword;
