About Dorothy

This is something that is near and dear to my heart because have a huge family, My mom and dad were the best, So when my dad started forgetting a lot and mom started falling a lot, we knew something was wrong, My dad had an early onset of Dementia and my mom was having mini strokes, which for both of them began getting worse, Our mom eventually had a major stroke and passed but not before she had to have brain surgery and be in a nursing home which we all still regret doing to this day, because wanted to be home, so with my dad we all took turns taking care of him at home until he eventually went into hospice care and not long after he passed, We did the same with our grandmother, I enjoy taking care of people in general, i have some the best clients right now, I enjoy talking to and spending time with the older generation you can learn so much from them.
