About who needs care: My grandmother is a Christian women in her 70s and has a hard time taking care of herself. She needs help to shower because she is over weight and has knee problems. She also needs help driving, and sometimes even walking. But all of us grandchildren live far away and dont have transportation to help her as much as she needs. She has type 1 diabetes, very bad bad problems, and also requires an oxygen tank most of the time for her breathing. She also has about 6 cats that she takes care of and live with her. Which is hard on her but she loves them a lot. I just need someone to take the time out of there day to help her with the simple things that she needs help with. Shes a very sweet lady and loves to talk to people. Shes really fun to be around in my opinion, she just needs a little help. About the care needs: I think that she would get along best with someone who is kind and will listen to her and talk with her. As she is a very sweet women and loves to talk to people. And she would probably need someone that can help her up and help her in and out of the shower, so someone is pretty strong. And she would also someone that will help her around the house with cooking and cleaning because it gets to be to much for her most of the time. Also the person has to like cats because she has an abundance of them. I think she would also benefit from someone who likes to crochet and or sow. As she hasn't exactly done either of these in a while, but I do know that she loves to. But that's pretty much all I'm looking for for her.
