Caregivers give so much of their time, their hearts and themselves to the people they care for. They ensure the big and little things are taken care of for you during recovery – from brushing your hair to driving to doctor visits. November is National Family Caregivers Month and we are urging you to honor the caregiver in your life by posting their picture and a thank you note on the Support Network.
Instructions: Participation is simple!
1. Take a picture of your caregiver, be as creative as you like.
2. Email it to SupportNetwork@heart.org. We will tag it with a Caregiver “Thank you” frame and upload it, plus your Thank you note here on the photo gallery designed especially for this:

3. Once it’s up we will send you an email so you can let your caregiver know about it.
Submit your photos to us between November 1st and November 30th.
