I just got an email from the National Family Caregivers Association
informing me of a free webinar they're putting on about effective
communication with doctors.  Back in September, they also held a webinar,
this one on details about how to deal with Medicaid.  So what's ridiculous
about that, you might ask?  Well, both of these potentially very valuable
and informative presentations were given in the afternoon on a workday.  
Now, maybe it's just caregiver stress and I ought to take another Welbutrin
and chill out, But I'm more than just a little incensed about the timing.  
Am I the only caregiver to a person with Alzheimer's who happens to be
fully employed and doesn't dare take any more time away from work than I
absolutely need to?  Are all the rest of you who also have this unwanted
responsibility to a sick loved one either retired or independently wealthy?

I'm wondering why an organization that is supposed to be dedicated to the
welfare of caregivers doesn't seem to get it.

Thanks.  I feel a little bit better now.  Not much, but a little...
