Brief Summary: It is known from extensive documentation that second victims in critical illness often are the care givers of the patients family friends or other persons Although this has not been specifically studied in the very old patients there is no reason to believe that this group will be different from other ICU patients Even more so in this very old age patient group there are seldom any older relatives Partners like wifehusband or other cohabitants may be dead or themselves incapacitated Many will be in institutional care The closest care-givers will be middle-aged people such as children or others if no partners are available

The hypothesis is that critical illness can be a large stressor to care-givers of survivors in the VIP measured as the occurrence and severity of the usual problems like PTSD and depression The investigators hypothesize that a low-threshold on-line support program decreases the magnitude of anxiety depression and PTSD for care-givers of very old intensive care patients VIP after discharge
