Guest guest Posted March 22, 2002 Report Share Posted March 22, 2002 Hello, I'm a new member to this site. My mom was diagnosed with shy- drager last Spring and she most likely has had it for 3 years. She is only 60 years old. She is just really starting to learn what her future may be like and she is very depressed. She had already suffered from depression throughout her life and this diagnosis has hit her very hard. As her adult daughter I am very concerned about her and want to be as supportive as I can. I live 2 hours away from her and am only able to visit once a month but we speak by phone regularly. Can anyone who has a parent with shy-drager share their experiences as an adult child? Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated. I am also trying to find out about support groups for my mother and father to attend in the Central Massachusetts area. I'd also like to find a support group for family members in Central Connecticut. Thank you much,Noreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
