Hi Alzheimer Caregivers,
After much trepidation and stalling, I am finally blogging. This is a test to see if I can do it. I plan on writing blogs by crisscrossing the various stages as I write since caregivers are not all at the same stage. My goal is to help and support readers and, hopefully, get some exchanges going. So I am sending this trial blogging balloon out to see what happens. All I need is feedback and then I am off and running.

Hello Susan,
Just fell onto your site yesterday. I am a psychiatric social worker by trade. I moved into Dementia, Alzheimer’s and working with the geriatric hospital patients and their families, after Hurricane Katrina here.
We had my father-in-law in our home for 3 1/2 years where I was the primary caregiver.
There is an ” I ” in team after all. I was the team, I even got veerrrrrrry little help from my wife, his daughter.
I was and continue to be out of the public work force since June 2015. I have been thinking I want to start writing as my Encore career, blogging to be specific regarding caregiving issues, experiences …..
I would like to make a closer connection, electronically for now, with you.
Mr. Al

Al,
Just got your message about wanting to write. How may I help?
