About Course
This 2-hour training is aimed at families and loved ones who have been supporting a person with MS for several years. MS is a long-term illness — and long-term support raises questions that training on diagnosis does not address: how to endure without exhausting oneself, how to maintain a couple’s relationship when roles have changed, how to envision the future as the illness progresses, how to continue living one’s own life while remaining present. This training provides long-term caregivers with the tools to cope, without sacrificing themselves, without losing themselves.
