About who needs care: My mother has Parkinsons, lime disease (which comes and goes), and a condition where her blood pressure drops dramatically when she stands for too long (which also comes and goes). My stepfather is also at home. He is 91 and has high blood pressure. My mother loves to crochet, read and watch TV. My stepfather likes to garden. They also have two dogs. About the care needs: First they should be comfortable around dogs. My mother is very intelligent and well traveled. Shes an avid reader and has a sarcastic sense of humor. So a sense of humor is important. Both my mother and step father are foodies, so they should be skilled in the kitchen. However, due to Parkinsons, food sometimes taste very strange to her. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
