Your relative's physician should be able to help in a variety of areas such as providing disease information and treatment options and helping with physician referral procedures. However, this doesn't have to be the case. Indeed, there is a wealth of information and support available to you from numerous sources that is aimed specifically at helping people in your position. It also provides many caregiver-specific sites where you can chat, share experiences, and offer help to other caregivers. If you do not have personal access to the Internet, your local library, support group, or other caregivers in your area might be able to help you.
Some libraries offer the service free.
They may have access via school or work. A ten-minute 'lesson' from a fellow user can equip you with most of the information you need to use the Internet effectively. Physicians and other health care professionals can provide you with valuable information. Ask for informational pamphlets or other written material on the disease and treatments, information on national and local support groups, and suggestions on where to find additional helpful information. These societies publish useful newsletters and leaflets and should be able to connect you with local community services.
