I have always had a love of the elderly. I visited my dear grandmother in the retirement centre 1-2 times per week. During my visits I did things for my grandmother that the staff were not able to provide at the retirement centre which was my time. In my time, I helped my grandmother with care such as taking her to the doctor or dentist, doing her shopping, painting her nails, taking her for walks (in her wheelchair), making her tea & her favourite treats, gentle back massage to ease her aches, reading to her, mending her clothing, spending quality time with her. I know that many elderly get nursing assistance but most often they don't get companionship which involves time. I want to give my valuable time to the elderly to help them overcome the loneliness that many of them feel.
