Support Group for People with Poorly Aging Parents

I’m in a similar predicament as you. While I haven’t yet joined an online or in person support group yet, I’ve found the information on the Alzheimer’s Association Website helpful, they have links to support groups (it seems like meetings are online due to Covid and you will probably have better luck calling the helpline as my web search turned up nothing) and a message board. I also found The 36-hour Day a useful read. 
It looks like Alzheimer’s Services of the East Bay has a support group for a fee.

I’m hoping other BPN community members will chime in. If not maybe we can form our own group.

My dad recently passed from early onset Alzheimer's.  My mom was his primary caregiver and found a support group through a local university health system (not here) so maybe check if where ever they are getting care has options for caregivers.  She also found the Early Onset Alzheimer's Facebook group to be helpful. 

While I wasn't the primary caregiver, I'm happy to discuss our experiences.  Feel free to reach out.  It is a hard, long road.

Hi - I'm also in what I suspect is a similar predicament. My 78-year-old mother lives with me, my husband, and our son. If you end up forming your own group, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks to you both (so far) for posting and for the tips.

My experience with Alzheimer Services of the East Bay is now old (2018?) but I really appreciated their free monthly support groups in Berkeley for those caring for family with dementia. With a group of people whose parents are at various stages, I got ideas of things to try and struggles to anticipate. It was also so helpful to vent with people who had somewhat shared experiences. I found some books helpful but now can’t remember which I liked (I know I had “36 hour day” and “learning to speak Alzheimer’s” - those and others listed here: https://brightwater-living.com/blog/best-books-on-alzheimers-and-dement… ). It’s really difficult.
