Stories from Caregivers: Tameisha from GEORGIA

FROM GEORGIA

The person I care for is my grandma Ella. She's a wonderful 93 years young. She has lived with us for the past year. It has been hard caring for her because I also have four young children to care for as well. I wouldn't change it for the world though. Hearing her sing and tell stories is something I'll cherish forever. She sometimes forgets our names and it's breaks my heart seeing her that way. She's frail and I have to remember she can't eat the same things we eat. But she still loves food. Her favorite is a fish sandwich from checkers and chocolate cake.
