ECareDiary. com’s founders, the husband and wife team of Mills and Baida launched eCareDiary. com in 2009, blending their extensive backgrounds in health care, business, and as family caregivers. The website was born of their shared mission to help other families struggling to provide top-quality long term care for their loved ones. While caring for their aging relatives, John and Susan navigated the challenges and unexpected rewards that come with providing care at home.
