My Seniors and Their Stories
My Friend Barbara
When I was referred to Barbara by her hospice nurse, she was homebound. Bedbound, actually. She has been in her home for many years. She knew she needed to move to get to a safer environment, as she was no longer able to care for her daily needs. We moved her into a beautiful facility, and she is so, so happy now. We took care of everything, from the packing and moving to setting up her new apartment just the way she wanted it. Every time I see her, she tells me how grateful she is to be where she is. Her home sold in a couple of days, and Barbara says, "I have my life back because of you." What a beautiful lady.
John's Story
John lived in a beautiful home on 25 acres south of Belen, NM. His wife had cancer and recently passed. He cared for her in this home for many years. It was very hard for him to leave. He was very lonely and isolated that far out there in the country. We found him a great place to live nearby in Los Lunas with wide open spaces, gardens, and a little casita apartment. He loves it and has made so many friends. Even went dancing a couple of times and listened to the band in the bistro. We packed his things, moved him, unpacked in his new apartment, did an online estate sale, then cleared the home, cleaned it, did some repairs, and put it on the market. It is currently under contract. Such a nice man.
My Friend Judith
Judith is one of my favorite clients. She was referred to me by a rehabilitation facility. Her husband, Don, was very ill with cancer, and she was on full-time dialysis and had been for years. We had to search long and hard to find a place where they could both live together, given their very different needs and levels of care needed. Unfortunately, her husband, Don, passed away during this process. He was a very nice man. I continued to find Judith a great new place to live. Where they would transport her to dialysis 3 times a week and care for her. We did an amazing estate sale. She has so many beautiful things. Then we sold her house in a couple of days, and she was able to put the money away for her care. Unfortunately, my good friend died this year. We would go to lunch once or twice a month, get our hair done, and grab a drink every now and then for years. I had the honor of being by her side when she passed, as her family was not able to be there for her. I miss her all the time.
The French Lady
This is Christiane. She is 93 now and from France. An amazing woman. Was she taking care of her siblings when the Germans invaded France? Has some amazing stories to tell. I was referred to her by a social worker at Presbyterian. She was in a little mobile home surrounded by flowers and gardens that she had planted and maintained herself until about 5 years ago. She had a very limited income. We moved her into an assisted living residential home. She has no children and no family here, so I agreed to be her POA and help her through this tough situation after we sold her home. I was able to get her on a government program for low-income seniors and have been the one paying her bills and making sure she has the treatment and care that she needs. She is a firecracker. My life has been so blessed knowing her, and I continue to care for her still today.
CJ, Had to Have Her Zebra Move Too
CJ had to move to assisted living as she had fallen several times and was unable to care for her daily needs any longer. We found her a great place that was new in the area that she could afford on her small income. CJ has traveled all over the world and had some amazing experiences. We packed them carefully and moved them to her new place. Hanging this zebra was no easy task. Then we did a buyout to have the additional items removed and sold. We cleaned up and then got her house sold in a few days. She is quite the character.
Word to Live By
Three things will last forever-- faith, hope, and love -- and the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13
Matthew 22:37-39
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
John 13:34-35
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this, everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
God bless you today and always.
