Caregiver and Companion for precious Alzheimer’s lady.

Jan 2021 - Apr 2021
Private Duty Health Care
Tried to bring Alzheimer's lady to reality as much as possible. I played games with her. Had her laugh and sing old childhood songs. Fixed meals. Bathed & Dressed her. Lifted her spirits when depressed over forgetfulness. We danced together and just acted silly at times. I loved that sweet 74 yr. old mother of 5. She didn't remember her kids, but she was always smiling when she saw me. As she could not stay alone, the kids put her in a home.
