This site was created to support caregivers like you so that you can keep your balance by:
finding good eldercare information,
for your unique situation,
at the right time.
I know about caregiving. For five years, with my sister as my partner, I cared for my ailing mother from a geographic distance of over 250 miles and an emotional distance that seemed longer.
And I Want To Share What I Learned.
What You'll Find On Parentcare 101
A selected list of books from other authors on eldercare which include plenty of ideas, resources and referrals for planning and juggling eldercare activities.
The Parentcare 101 Mini-Vacation Blog published on Tuesdays each week to remind you to take a breath, take a break!

We're Moving!
During the months of June & July 2010, we'll be steadily moving the information from this website to our new home at www.parentcare101.com. There will be links from your favorite pages here to the new location, and you may be routed to this site for resources still available here. We plan to be settled in by August. Check out our new site; we know you'll like it!
