About Dan Goerke:

Dan Goerke grew up in northern Indiana and currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia. He has led a life of varied endeavors and accomplishments in competitive swimming, real estate, volunteer work with the Alzheimer's Association, is a Reiki Master, candle maker and author.

Dan suddenly found himself a caregiver to his wife Denise upon her diagnosis at age 56 of Alzheimer's Disease. Uninformed and uneducated about the disease he quickly utilized the resources of the Alzheimer's Association to learn more about the disease progression, caregiving tips and practices, support groups, and elder care attorneys. Two years into his caregiving journey he began communicating telepathically with Denise which aided tremendously in her care.

Dan now offers private sessions to those who want to hear from their loved ones who have gone silent. He has appeared in over 40 different media publications and programs talking about dementia, caregiving, and telepathic communication. He was most recently featured on an episode of "The Telepathy Tapes" podcast.

Dan's first book, "Unforgettable, Unbelievable", was inspired by many friends and family members who encouraged him to write about his caregiving experiences while taking care of his wife Denise.

About "Unforgettable, Unbelievable":

"Unforgettable, Unbelievable: A Journey of Telepathy, Caregiving, and Alzheimer's" follows Dan Goerke as he discovers he can communicate telepathically with his wife Denise, whose Alzheimer's has taken away her ability to speak clearly. This unexpected connection allows Denise to guide him from the "inside," sharing practical tricks and preferences that make day-to-day caregiving more effective and more dignified for her.

Through this lens of telepathy, Dan describes the emotional and physical challenges of caregiving while offering concrete tips for both new and experienced caregivers, blending a realistic view of Alzheimer's with humor and warmth. The book ultimately becomes a portrait of a devoted marriage in the face of decline, showing how love, creativity, and even seemingly mystical experiences can help families navigate the silence that often comes with advanced dementia.
