There are not enough words to express how special Marika is. She came into our lives when our family needed her most, and instantly felt like part of our family. She took care of my mother with Parkinson’s dementia for 3 years. Marika is the kindest, most loving, attentive, supportive, patient, and caring woman we have ever met. My mother felt so comfortable and safe with her. Marika was not only her caretaker, but a true companion and friend. My family felt at ease knowing my mother was in such great hands. Marika kept my mom active, well fed, engaged in conversation, made her laugh, played her favorite activities with her, took her to doctors appointments, and was the most organized and punctual at all times. We all felt like we could confide in Marika, she has a way of comforting anyone around her. I can’t say enough amazing things about Marika, she is really one of kind.
