I'd describe my personality as positive, friendly, caring I like caring for seniors because I have always enjoyed spending time with and helping seniors. I started caring for seniors in 2020 In my spare time, I like to hike, ride bikes, listen to music, play games, read One thing you should know about me is I am and honest person. My skills include helping with bathing, dressing, laundry, prepare meals, light housekeeping.
Kathy was perfect in caring for my wife and supportive of me as the three of us took our journey down Alzheimer's Lane. She was with us for daytime support for nearly 2 years. I know she really cared for my wife and did not just take care of her. My wife loved music, and Kathy would play songs from my wife's play list. Kathy was always on time for the duration of her commitment to us. As always happens, Alzheimer's keeps taking away the person. It was then that I placed my wife in a wonderful setting for the final 18 months of our journey.
