Describe your website.

To Sell my book: "Dementia Diary" the home page refers surfers to my personal comment about being a caregiver. For those that want to know more about the author a page of my personal history is offered. I've been lucky to receive many great reviews and testimonials that, I hope, will encourage caregivers to actually buy the book. I also maintain a blog which to date, has achieved a following of eldercaregivers.

Who is the target audience for your website?

Cargiver's of loved one's suffering from Alzheimer's Disease and other dementias.

What is the advantage of your website over others?

Using compassion and humor, Dementia Diary focuses on caregiver burnout and is a portable support system for caregivers. It's also one of the few books on the topic written by a male caregiver and that provides a man's perspective on a family task usually performed by women.
