I came across an excellent resource for those of us who are caregivers for someone with progressive MS. It's a book published by the National Multiple Sclerosis Society called, "Caring for Loved Ones with Advanced MS: A Guide for Families".
If you were gong to gather all of the topics that caregivers need to understand (starting with the oft-overlooked topic of taking care of the caregiver!) you would end up with a book just like this one. It's an amazing and complete resource that will assist any caregiver in finding answers to their questions, as well as prompting them to consider questions they may not yet be thinking about.
Contact your local chapter of the MS Society to find out how to get a copy of this excellent resource. It deserves a place on every caregiver's bookshelf.
Wondered if this book is available only in the USA, or in other countries too?
Thank you

We were sent the above mentioned book for free from the MS Society (call your local chapter), and I agree that it is excellent for more advanced issues.
