Sandra’s introduction to my husband was just after he emptied four days of his bowel contents. I was apologetic and said I’d do clean up. She held her hand up and said,”This is why I am here. This is my job.” And do her job she did. She’d watch him eat and suggest a way for him to slow down the cramming of food. He knocked over two glasses of water which flowed on table, floor and him. She cleaned all surfaces, changed him to dry clothes and washed / dried the wet garments. She also showed me a better idea from which he should drink. I ordered it immediately. My husband is incontinent so sheets and pull ups are constantly needing to be changed. Clever lady Sandra told me how to extend life on the pull ups and, using that same arrangement, keeping our sheets dry. (If you hire her she’ll share this knowledge.) She exercised my spouse up and down stairs with the gait belt. She was safety conscious and a coach pushing him to keep going. When he tired she’d sit with him, turn on the TV and engage him with what was happening on it. This was her way of keeping him engaged. I keep an organized house but Sandra could always find something to clean, dust, wipe, etc. As she would say, @I’m not here to just sit around.@ I will say her positive outlook, gentleness with my man and wonderful patience left me with no worry about running errands and leaving her in charge. Thank you for giving the best of yourself, Sandra, to us.
