Caregiving with Humor, Heart & Help
… because caregiving is everyone’s business.
Dayna Steele knows caregiving firsthand.

Today, Dayna shares what she learned with caregivers, families, healthcare professionals and senior living organizations—with practical help, hard-earned wisdom, humor and the reminder that no caregiver should have to figure it all out alone.

The Book That Started It All
Surviving Alzheimer’s with Friends, Facebook, and a Really Big Glass of Wine is Dayna Steele’s honest, funny and deeply personal account of caring for her mother through Alzheimer’s. Part survival guide, part love story, the book shares real-life lessons, practical advice and the humor that helped Dayna navigate one of life’s hardest journeys—and reminds caregivers that sometimes the best thing you can do is simply get through today.
Dayna Steele sneaked past my defenses the same way that she dealt with her own misery — with humor — by making me laugh, she managed to break my heart.
