Caregiving Story

David Reed, My Dear Friend

Age:70
Location:Clinton Township, MI
Cared for by:Yvette Cleveland
Years of Care:9

 

I have been taking care of Mr.Reed for a very long time. I was very nervous at first, but as time went along, we bonded and built a strong web of trust and communication between us. His wife is also a very wonderful person.

They welcomed me into their home and I have been his care provider since 1999. I enjoy caring for the elderly because I know I will one day be in those very same shoes and I want someone to care for me with compassion and understanding.
