JACQUELINE MARCELL barely survived as a caregiver to her (once-adoring) challenging father and sweet mother, both with Alzheimer's which went undiagnosed for over a year. But after fighting through the medical system, endless tears, and depleting her parents' life savings and much of her own--she figured everything out medically, behaviorally, socially, legally, financially and emotionally. www.ElderRage.com Personalized/Autographed copies via PayPal: http://www.ElderRage.com/Order-2012.asp Passion to save others (especially from elder abuse) resulted in her first book, written with humor to make a tough subject palatable, "Elder Rage, or Take My Father... Please! How to Survive Caring for Aging Parents" (print, audio, eBook). Over 50 endorsements include Regis Philbin, Leeza Gibbons and John Hopkins Memory Clinic.
