About Charlene

I am proud that a Colon Cancer, CHF, Dementia, and Parkinson's diagnosed person had improvement under my care. I enjoy interactions with convalescent persons to recommit to them that life's book has many more chapters for him /her, and he/she has many more memories to be a part of in their families lives. Friends and relatives gravitated toward me with needing my assistance, and asking for health advice to improve a status or to recover from their hospitalization. "When a person can remember his/her good ole days and not be fearful of life's ups and downs". (He/She is still a part of a purposeful life) The knowing that trouble(s) don't last always and that theres something to be learned or gained even in adversity from scripture teachings and in life's living is wondrous to me - because I pride myself to help others see, feel, and know that his/her glass is half full; and he/she is always very important; and life is still good til she/ he decides to take that final breathe.
