    Cancer Basics for the Caregiver It Is Common to Make Many Assumptions When You Hear the Word “Cancer.” Cancer Is Not One Disease, but Rather a Family of Diseases

    Caregiver’s Guide Types of Caregiving Caregiving can range from 24/7 hands-on assistance to driving someone to appointments to long-distance caregiving. Every situation is different. Your loved one has cancer and you want to help. At first, it all seems overwhelming. Everything that you took for granted is suddenly uncertain. Many caregivers are naturally worried about the person with cancer, and also worried about the rest of life—taking care of other family members, paying the bills, maintaining the house, and so much more. It’s important to realize two things: 1) You’re not alone— many other people have been in this situation before, and 2) there are resources available to help. We’ve prepared this booklet to guide and assist you. Much depends on the needs of the patient, your What’s essential is to understand that the role of the relationship with the patient, and practical matters loved one is to support and comfort, not to “fix” the such as where you live. problem.

Rob Calarco (D-Patchogue) in its final phase. Once completed later this summer, the lake will be restored back to its natural state to be used once again as a recreational center- piece in North Patchogue. In November, New York Depart- ment of Environmental Conservation permit applications were submitted, allowing the project to move into the last phase. They were ultimate- ly approved this January, and the Suffolk County Department of Pub- lic Works is currently soliciting bids for a contractor. Calarco acquired an additional $1.65 million in county funding late last year for the comple- tion of the project. Construction is expected to begin in the spring, and the lake should refill late this sum- mer or in early fall. The project began in 2017 with the installation of a new culvert and sluice gate under Traction Boule- vard, which allowed the lake to be drained in 2018 and ultimately dry out the lake bed.
