About who needs care: She had a left knee replacement in February. She is on a walker. Currently in PT 3x a week. Has some incontinence & bowel issues occasionally (wears depends etc). Takes several medications. Is very mentally alert, loves puzzles and word searches. Is sometimes forgetful (to be expected for 79 ) or repeats herself. Should not be driving but talks like she will eventually. Husband passed in 2021. Lives alone and wants to retain her independence but needs some help to keep it all straight when her sons or myself (daughter in law) cant. Loves her Church, America (retired from Dept. of Energy, her late husband and youngest son (my fiance) are Veterans) & watching TVNews. About the care needs: A good fit would be an older woman that she may have some things in common with who would also enjoy doing puzzles with her , or sitting outside to Birdwatch, which she loves to do. She's a conservative Republican and loves TV News so someone with views in line with hers would be a plus as she does watch the news a good bit.
