About who needs care: My mother has lung cancer that has spread and is no longer treatable. She has brain tumors that are starting to affect her cognitive ability. She is currently fairly self sufficient, but needs someone to ensure she takes medicine, to encourage her to eat and drink, and be here if she is weak and needs assistance. I want her to have her independence as long as possible and I really would like to find someone who is very patient as she is taking longer to understand things. About the care needs: Someone who is patient and understanding. I can be here during the day, but I need someone from 6 p.m. to 7 a.m. to be with her at night and to give her medicine at 8:30 p.m. and 2:30 a.m. Services needed include: companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
