Joy
I would really like to see the government amke some arrangement for health insurance coverage for long term family caregivers as this is something that the caregiver needs most and if under the age of Medicare often cannot pay for for themselves.
Also I would like to see them put something in place for law enforcement to keep records of those who have dementia or mental issues , as we have recently seen cases in our area where someone wit Alzheimers was been missing for 2 weeks and found dead in her car miles from home. She had asked a police officier for directions home the second day she left home and could not follow the directions.
