About Sheila

I enjoy making sick people feel better. Sometimes a bath or a good meal or even sitting on the porch or outside under a tree can really boost someone's spirit. Basic human needs must be met for well persons but even MORE for someone who isn't well. I believe the elderly deserve to be listened to for they have valuable lessons to teach us.
