I have been in the healthcare field for over 30 years. Growing up my father was a paraplegic, and my Mother and Brother-In-Law died of Cancer. I suppose caring for loved ones led me to a career in medicine. Recently, I cared for my live in Mother-In-Law of 20 years. She was diagnosed with Dementia/Alzheimer's in 2013. In the beginning of 2018 it became necessary to care for her full time. It became necessary to downgrade my practice in August, when she suffered a stroke and became bedridden. I cared for her at home 24/7 until February when she passed. I understand the mental, physical, and financial strain caring for a loved one places on a family. Allowing strangers in the home for any help/relief is a new frightening experience in itself. I am honest, experienced, compassionate, and have been in the same situation myself. I will do my best to help care for your loved ones in the loving way I cared for my own.
