Caregiving Story

Ellanor Davis

Location: Philadelphia, PA
Age: 92
Cared for by: Chavon Simmons
Years of Care: 10
My client Ms.Davis was a precious woman. Not to mention the fact that she rminded me of my deceased Grandmother. Well one evening as I was leaving Ms. Davis' home I told her that I hoped she enjoyed her Easter sunday the following day. She stated she had no friends and family so she would be lonely. Well that broke my heart. So on Easter Sunday I got dressed and told my children I would be back. I went to Ms.Davis home and surprized her with a card, candy, and a plate of home cooked food for her to enjoy. She was overwhelmedhe . She cried silent tears of joy. I was just glad she knew someone still loved and cared for her.
