My main work for now is CareGiving, and the gentleman 'M' and his wife are my clients. He is a lovely person , 93 years old, and suffers from Alzheimer's disease. His wife (90) of nearly 66 years also has a different type of dementia.
I spend four nights a week taking care of them , sleeping ??? in their home, sometimes, cooking meals and cleaning etc. I get to do for them the things they can no longer do for themselves.
My little dog Sam has become very therapeutic for M, and I am blessed to be able to take him with me especially since he is so sick.(my dog that is)
I am as well the single parent of Jason. I love Yvonne and there are no words to describe my love for Anneka and Aila. I know Trudy and Ted will really miss them, for I also have lived far from them for a few years now and have wept many a day in lonliness for them. Now I will be able to drive a few hours and visit them more often once they move to Ottawa.
Rebecca is also my friend and I have been keeping track of the adventures of you and Trudy as well.
So ... there you go joann, a little information to keep you current . Thank you for commenting on my blog. Bless you and your family.

I'm enjoying Winnipeg. Time for a break!!
I am so impressed. I really vibe with caregivers because I 'm one too...mom and aunt & its not easy. My 84 yr old aunt is getting senile and suffers from dementia, its difficult at times. Our dog Sheba is also like a therapy dog for her.But aunt Sybil has a sweet nature so its not that bad really.
Yes Amrita, my people as well are very sweet, and I am blessed to be able to care for them as they wait for God.
