Here are a few sites that may be helpful to you and your Dam. There is so much information out there, and a lot of preparation for both you, your household and your Dam. Make sure you do your research, no question is a stupid questin and as you can see, be repared for the worse.
There are a lot of people here who take their causes very serious and will not hesitate to leave rude comments to get their point across. Those are the members who you just need to try not to comment back to or all hell breaks loose. Then the war of the comments begins. I've seen it too many times. Just ask your questions and let the rest go...
Best of luck to you.
