Dear
Linda,
Thank you for having
Teresita find the POA at Dad's and
scan/emailing over. We are still trying to
get coordinated (siblings) on who is
responsible for what in regards to Dad &
need to close a few gaps. I cannot begin to
thank ProWatch for the help & support
provided. I feel fortunate that your company
was not only the first I called but the
right one - which is a big relief.
The plan is to keep
Dad in his home for as long as possible. It
is where he is most comfortable. How
feasible this is will depend on the
progression of the dementia & hope his
primary can advise & provide guidance.
In the meantime, Dad
really likes Teresita - a major plus! & is
happy to have her visit.
Sincerely,
Kathleen |

Where do I begin to say
thank you. After six weeks time, now that I
have been healing and given the OK to at
least drive, I've gained more independence,
even though I am light years away from being
back to normal.
I can't thank you
enough for helping make a very difficult and
rather scary situation for me as smooth as
you were able. Being virtually alone, with
no family nearby, a house and business left
behind that normally I would need to attend
to at minimum 12 hours a day, you made these
past six weeks doable, enjoyable and
possible.
You stuck by my side
the entire time when I needed you, at times
like the surgery that wasn't planned and was
suspended the entire day pending insurance
approval before going ahead. Driving me to
and from the hospital many times a week.
Shopping for me or driving me to and from
the stores. Unloading everything and putting
it away only to start my laundry and finish
it each and every day. And when the time to
get together was determined by either me, an
appointment, or whatever, like a General in
the Army, you never missed a beat, you were
never early and making me feel rushed, and
not a minute late making me crazy for fear
of delay. You are truly an amazing person.
And unlike a nurse I
hired before learning of Pro Watch and you,
a person who didn't really try that hard,
whom I could barely understand since she was
from another country. And finally I couldn't
get rid of fast enough because I didn't like
her for all of that and more. You have been
the opposite, a total delight. Polite,
gentle, patient, understanding and a joy to
talk with about any and all matters,
subjects or concerns.
Letting you work less
hours, and not every day is as disappointing
In many ways as it is exciting and a joy to
also be able to get into the car and go to
next block if that's all I do,
independently, I just have to figure out how
to have both without being considered more
eccentric then I already am.
It's been two days now
that I am going to the one hospital for IV
antibiotics without you. A place where
beginning from the valet service to the
moody nurse who determines what time I can
start by medicine, to when I can and cannot
go; everyone asks for you and wants to know
why you aren't with me. No question you are
missed. So as the days ahead that don't
include getting together, it's only because
I am somewhat able to get by for now without
you and not because I don't want to have you
at my side. Thus this thank you note
alerting you that I still plan to call you
for help if you find yourself available to
assist when the time comes and also to say
thank you. Because anything less would be a
crime not to let the other person, you, know
how much you are appreciated and how
grateful I am to have you be who you are,
and a part of my life.
Wishing you all the
best until we talk next, Colin
