Hi, I wrote a book about my caregiving experience with my Dad. I learned so much and I truly want to share it. This book means a lot to me. It's main purpose is to provide information on tools that I found useful and tips that I found necessary to know when caring for a loved one. I would like an objective read to assess the organization and content. I have also designed templates and record keeping downloads that I feel will be useful. My website is Kindness Full Stop if you want to see them. The reason I am telling you this is to demonstrate I truly care and would like someone to look at my book that also has such empathy to help me best disseminate this information.
