Hello Emma! How good to hear from you! I certainly remember you and remember you

were thinking of writing about your experience before. I wish you the best of

luck in this endeavor. Hope life is treating you well!

Emma,

I thought of the books already written and thought you might like to have access

to them prior to your writing. I know they are listed in our files.

will direct you to them if you can't find them.

I think 2 or 3 caregivers have now written books. Hope this helps.

Hugs, And congratulations that you have the time to do this.

Although I am very aware of how busy you all are I am posting today to seek your

help. I am in the (extremely) beginning stages of thinking about writing a book

about my experience with my grandma and I would LOVE to have (and possibly use)

any of your stories and experiences that you might wish to share. My infant

privacy.

I say prayers for all of you every day and wish you the best of luck in all your

situations. If you have any thoughts or ideas on this book thing I'd love to
