Caregiving Story

Lillian Fabajenski

Location: Highland Township, MI

Age: 78

Cared for by: Lauren Jackson

Years of Care: 6

I took care of my grandma for six years from 6th grade until 11th grade. She had Parkinson's disease and she would always get really stiff. She had a bell she used to ring when she needed help. I would give her meds and help her go to the bathroom and also gave her baths. I cooked and cleaned for her. I love her a lot and miss her very much since she died. I always love to help people, it makes me happy helping others in need. I have a very good heart.
