Caring for partners topic?

My husband is now elderly and unwell. Is there anywhere appropriate for chats on these topics? "Caring for elderly parents" doesnt feel right. Where do these posts end up?

@SpanThatWorld

Would general health fit for you?

Hi @SpanThatWorld

We understand why you're looking for a more refined area of talk to discuss this.
We have a carers topic, which we think would be helpful for you to post in. It's broad in terms of areas of caring, so you're likely to find support and other users in similar situations.

Thanks. Not sure how I'd missed that 🙄

Seems to have a fair number of people misreading it as Careers...

Ah, we see what you mean! We're going to move the rogue threads to more suitable topics now. Thanks for flagging this to us.
