She is my Dad’s helper.
She puts in 14 hours a week,
She makes lunch sometimes,
she does dishes,
she cleans his place from top to bottom,
she does his laundry,
she soaks his feet and cuts his toenails,
she takes his blood pressure,
she puts on his compression stockings,
she does balance exercises with him,
she helps him work with his weights,
she watches Blue Jay games with him,
she listens to music with him,
she does jigsaw puzzles with him,
she goes on long walks in the neighborhood with him,
She is his friend.
And she does it all with a consistent smile, happy attitude and pleasant approach. She lifts his spirits and raises him up. And hence, she raises all of us up who interact with my Dad. Everyone needs a Sandra! She’s amazing.
