About Judith

Even though I went straight from graduating College in 1986 to concentrate on providing services for foster children and their parents, I still continued to provide loving care for various people in my life such as my mother , my neighbor and a doctor's aunt. Now that I have entered early retirement at age 55 ( in April of 2018), I want to concentrate on caring for the elderly whom may not be able to care for themselves. Elderly people deserve the best care as they age.
