Friends feared that I would get upset watching these movies, but real life is far more "real" than watching fictional characters on the screen and some of what I've experienced was even more distressing than what was portrayed so I was hardly shocked or shaken to the core. I never did have the time to read The 36 Hour Day....for obvious reasons. I could not agree more as to the value of watching these three films.

I am a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist and my services are all aimed at helping family caregivers who may be in these situations. My services are private and community-based and often the caregivers aren't looking for them. It's up to health care providers and family and friends to point them in the right direction. Thanks for your good work. Be well, Angela Hi Jennifer,
