Living as caregivers to aging parents

"I believe that most caregivers find that they inherit a situation where they just kind of move into caregiving. it's not a conscious decision for most caregivers, and they are ultimately left with the responsibility of working while still trying to be the caregiver, the provider and the nurturer." - Sharon Law Tucker

"The best people are the good old wrinkled people with a sparkle in their eye, a wink when you walk by or a toothless smile saying you are doing just fine." - Robert Wesley Miller

"Never tease an old dog; he might have one bite left." - Robert A. Heinlein

"I've never stopped wanting to cross
the equator, or touch an elk's
horns, or sing Tosca or screw
James Dean in a field of wheat.
To hell with wisdom. They're all wrong:
I'll never be through with my life." - Rita Dove

"Even eighty-odd is sometimes vulnerable to vanity." - L. M. Montgomery

A Little Unexpected...

"Embracing a healing presence requires you to just be in the moment together." - Nancy L. Kriseman

  1. The firm has forty three 3D printers and is proud to be the most effective 3D printing service in Angers . So if you live in the European Union, you would possibly need to use one of many top 3D printing companies on this area. You can order 3D elements via any of the 4 offered technologies similar to FDM , SLS , Multijet printing CNC machining and Continuous Fibre Fabrication.
