Ty for the above info. I use a small kindle fire tablet. Lost the previous link you provided a while ago. Tablet can't print or save files on a memory stick to take to staples. Contacted local council on aging, they have nothing to offer. Contacted AARP caregiver resources, they couldn't help. I appreciate your patience with me& will order the program from resource provided.
I look forward to wrapping my head around all this info. Knowledge will help both of us deal with MCI.
On another note ET has been stable for a good amount of time now. Aspirin&hydrea daily. Occasional fatigue.
Ty to all that participate here. It is so helpful. I am not alone on this. You help ease my burden&perspective.

@colleenyoung - Hi Colleen - I may be getting a little confused, but I believe this is the same address I gave @tresman10 in my original post on May 18 - except I added the actual location of the manual...
https://www.hcinteractive.com/files/pdf/SavvyCaregiverManual.pdf
So... I thought tresman10 had the download information but just wondered whether you could actually purchase the hardcopy manual vs. having to download and print it. I went on to explain that our local Council on Aging printed it as part of the Savvy Caregiver training and allowed students in the class to purchase the hardcopy for a small fee - maybe $10. And as I'm writing this, I want to also share with tresman10 that as long as you have purchased the download link, I think you could take the file to Staples or Office Depot and get them to print and bind a hardcopy for you. Just a thought!
Anyway, I'm glad we are all on the same page in recognizing what a great resource we have here..
