When Carrie Scheufler’s husband Tom was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and dementia, Carrie had to learn how to be a caregiver. The retired Sandusky teacher also had to learn how to take care of herself, and she will share her experiences at Stein Hospice’s “Caring for the Caregiver.” 

All caregivers are invited. Please join us Saturday, May 4, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., at Stein’s main office, 1200 Sycamore Line, Sandusky. People will also learn how to give a hand massage and have the opportunity to talk with other caregivers. For reservations, call Stein Hospice, 800-625-5269.
