Caregiving Story

Tom and Sherley

Location: Surfside Beach, SC
Age: 74 - 72
Cared for by: Barbara Mullis
Years of Care: 10
I took care of Tom and his wife for 4 years before they passed. I did everything for them. I loved them like a daughter. I cooked and cleaned. Sherley was unable to feed herself or anything, so I did it all for her. I took them to the doctor, I gave them their meds, I was there for anything they wanted. I am 60 years old and my parents have passed. I just love people and love to help them.
