Welcome luvhollyann,

Go to the top of the caregivers forum page and look under "Who are you" to read who some of us are.

I've never listed myself there because I just haven't had the time, but many others have posted info about themselves.

I've checked it out a few times, but it's just too much for me to read all of it.

Hi Holly,

I initially tried to sign up as Tired but it was taken so I'm Weary.
When I found this site several months ago I felt that described me perfectly.

So glad you're climbing aboard this life raft. You're gonna love it here.
Welcome aboard.

Years ago I started playing an online game with my children. I found a name I loved, and it started from there! I even tagged it onto a small buisness i have, tho lol its more pleasure than money making at the moment! Still I am Chey. People know me that way.

Welcome aboard Smiler

Tell us about your loved one, the one who brings you here. What is their diagnosis? Are you caring for them at home, or are they either independent or in a nursing home?

My husband has AD and lives at home with us, still pretty functional. My father also has AD and lives in an Alzheimer's care facility.

Look forward to hearing more from you.

Welcome to the nicest group of folks you will ever meet.

I have a mother with FTD and a step-father with AD. It has been a very long journey with many challenges.

Are you involved with caregiving? Who in your family or circle has been affected?

Looking forward to hearing from you.
