Purpose:
Using secondary analysis and Friedemann's framework of systemic organization as a guide, the purpose of this article is to examine the experience of a subsample of five men caring for women with stroke who participated for 3 months in a Web-based support group.
Method:
Analysis of qualitative data (N = 224 entries) obtained from interview questions and discussion amongst the caregivers followed established protocols.
Results:
Results revealed that these men were dealing with role changes and women's depression and irritability. The stroke event also fostered closer family ties and "being there" for one another.
Conclusion:
These findings begin to explore the complex experience of men caring for women with stroke.
