When her husband's health began to decline, Guo, (Lily) Gang Ling became a full time caregiver. This change is one that many families face, and can understandably lead to a great deal of stress for new caregivers. But as Lily puts it, she can still have "peace of mind, and a life full of joy."
Lily now takes part in SPLC's Caregiver Support Group, and has continued to be incredibly involved in her community. "At SPLC I received timely, all-around physical and mental support," she says. "In particular I participated in the Caregiver Support Group and received training for caregivers to acheive a complete life. I realized the importance of self-care, maintaining an active life, participating in community activities, and accepting community support services. Meanwhile, I continue volunteering, visiting people in need, and learning all sorts of new skills."
SPLC is thankful to all volunteers who remain dedicated to supporting our community. We are always looking to build our community and welcome new volunteers to our team. By becoming part of our team, you will help ensure our vital programs continue to be available for seniors.
