Brittany’s Bio
I started care giving in January of 2014. I lived with a 106 year old lady in Hot Springs, Arkansas. That is where I from. When I first came she could not walk, use her hands for anything, or even sit up in the bed. After a few months of taking care of her. I had her using her own hands to eat and hold her coffee cup and hold books and fold towels. Things she could not even try to do at first. I also got her sitting up in bed and eventually I got her getting into a wheel chair so she could sit up and get around the house if she wanted.
I clothed her, bathed her, made her food and fed her, changed her diapers, lifted her out of bed and into the wheel chair, helped keep her house clean, fixed her hair makeup everyday, once a week I would curl her hair and paint her nails and toe nails. That was the highlight of her week!!
I lived with her till the first week of August when I got married and had to move here to Oklahoma.
I enjoyed being with her everyday! She practically became my second grandma. Yes there were times she pretty cranky and didn't want to take her medicine or get out of bed, so I would just sit there with her and explain why we have to take our medicine, and even if she didn't feel like getting up out of bed I told her she needed to get up for at least half an hour while she ate breakfast or something because it would help keep her blood moving and her legs not to cramp from being in bed all day. I normally got her up in the chair twice a day.
I absolutely loved helping and caring for Ms Mary. I loved making her laugh and having so many conversations with her. I learned so much from her on a daily basis.
