Abstract
The study concerns a 20-months follow-up of caregivers of adult persons with chronic and acquired pathologies. Five hundred and sixty-four caregivers agreed to have four times a phone assessment during the period of the survey. Their professional and health situation progressively worsens. Nevertheless, the relationship balance is positive. The meaning of their commitment compensates for what they have borne. Caregivers' first proposal for future is turned to frail adults without a family.
