Caregiving Story

Ethel and Una McCready

Sometimes we go into a caregiving situation and the seniors reverse it on us!

These lovely 91 year old twins taught me so much. They were so sweet and possessed an inner peace, strength, and sense of who they were. That is very hard to come by these days.

One would always insist on making me lunch every day. Their minds were so active. They loved to discuss politics and society. I loved pouring over the pictures of them as little girls in the l890's. What changes they experienced! It was such a joy to visit my friends. Any work I did seemed incidental. They are in heaven now but it was a pleasure just to know them.
