My mother was diagnosed with vascular dementia 3 years ago and has been in care for just under a year. We are a small family and I take on about 90% of the responsibility for mum. Obviously her being in care has lightened the load considerable and I now visit her a couple of times a week and my brother every fortnight. I do however feel in a very fragile emotional state about my mother condition and wondered if any one knows of an organisation that offers support groups for relatives who are not carers. I think would benefit greatly from talking to others who are in my situation. Many thanks .
