Caregiving Story

Disabled Chilld, In Memory Of

Age:
Location:Liverpool, NY
Cared for by:Marona Howard
Years of Care:5

 

Eight years ago, there was a child born with water on his brain. This child went to speech, physical and occupational therapy, but was never known to see or hear sounds. His parents never gave up, even though the had this child when they were 19 and 20 years old and trying to go to school. So the love and support I provided for this child was feeding, bathing, and assisting him to all appointments to the doctors until the day he passed after his fifth birthday. I am sure that the love I had and still have for my own child can be used to care for someones love one also.
