Today I received a birthday card in the mail from my 99 year-old Mother. What makes that really amazing is the fact that my Mother can't see or write anymore. The note in the card was dictated by Mom and written by her Visiting Angels care-giver -- Christine. I can't express how much joy that card brought to my day. Here is what I can express -- Christine is a goddess! Managing Mom's care from many states away is so much easier because of Christine's dedication, her consistent, caring personality and her 'can-do' attitude. I have received text message replies from her that say "I got you", and "you can count on me" at times when I was at my wits-end and asking her for something that was truly above and beyond. She has helped improve communication and she is an advocate and friend for our Mother. More importantly, there have been times when she has raised a concern that I KNOW prevented a critical health situation for my Mother. As a daughter -- my stress is greatly reduced because of Christine and most certainly my Mother's life is far better than it would be without her. There are not enough ways to say THANK YOU to Christine and the Visiting Angels team.
