*JOIN US*
Joining Caregiver's Around the World is easy. All you have to do is write about a subject(s) close to your heart and e-mail me with your article. You will then be added to the article list page.
If you are interested, but unsure of what to write about, not to worry. You can write about anything you want. You may have some suggestions to offer to other caregivers, you may just need to vent and have others understand what you are going through, or you may want to meet other caregivers and become e-mail pals. You can submit stories, poems, songs...it is entirely up to you. It can be as long, or as short, as you like. It's your time to speak out. All I ask is that your writing(s) be geared towards caregiving.
Everybody is welcome to submit articles. You may be a long distance caregiver, you may work in a long term care facility, or you may be a volunteer. There are no limits. Others can benefit from experiences.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to e-mail me at: tranquility@home.com
To submit your article, please e-mail me at the above address with the subject title "Experience."
