I'm working on a book exposing fraud & manipulation in the caregiving industry. A topic, many, unfortunately, seems to relate to. There are many stories but none are publicized! True story, change the names. My story of 6 years -- because.... My dad's in love with his caregiver/CareTaker!

Currently I am working on a screenplay fantasy drama about life with dementia. Did send an invitation to you.

Christina, I think I am about 90% complete. The other short stories are complete. My own story is taking longer due to the existing circumstances. - the drama continues to unfold - and you just can't make this up. Evelyn, I accepted. The screenplay would be of my story only. Getting permission from a few people would be possible. Others would not. I have quite a bit of dialogue via recordings & texts.
Dan, thanks for the advice. I'll do a brief of "Hot Stuff".

Jacklyn, I did already a script adaption. Although I couldn't finished it because of Corona, I would be happy to give your book a try. Your topic is great and I really love real life stories. I always say: Life's writing the best screenplays. Simple. Best, Christina.
Best of luck and great subject: And can share stories, recently, I just barely saved my Mom's Life and mind after common practices for mental ward lock-down's of 7 days observation; during my Mothers small dementia episode, instead of treating they locked her away putting her in profound danger a year later has just barely recovered.

Christopher - that's one of the main points - who/how are "these people" qualified?? Have the people you entrust your loved one to, been background checked, fingerprinted
, references? We have to trust these people who may be inept to care - to give a damn!
Yes, Agreed.... however equally important are the archaic methods of treatment. Then they legally locked my Mom away 7 days, they said it was common practice to lock dementia patients away for observation ? Instead if treatment ! . . . Well here for you when or if needed with more cased studies.
