This year, I've had the privilege of caring for and assisting some wonderful individuals, making my job really fulfilling and enjoyable.
One of my long-time clients is Janice, with whom I've shared over 5 years. Janice faces challenges with MS and relies on a wheelchair. Our outings to the gym, shopping, national trust sites, and cafes are always filled with laughter. We have a great friendship! This Christmas, I had the joy of spending a couple of hours with her on the day, creating special memories together.
Another remarkable person I've had the honor of working with for nearly 2 years is Nicki. Facing significant physical limitations, being almost paralyzed from the neck down, and struggling with speech, Nicki never fails to welcome me with a cheerful smile. I accompany her on shopping trips, to the cinema, and take her out on walks. I also feed her and help her around her home. I occasionally take her autistic son out for visits to places like the silk museum and lunch outings.
Linda, one of my earliest clients, and I have developed a lovely friendship over the past 8 years. My responsibilities for Linda include housework and shopping, and our time together is always filled with nice chats and laughter. We are good friends.
I also provide support to Brian and John, both of whom warmly welcome me into their homes, where I assist with household tasks.
I consider myself fortunate to be able to offer support to these incredible individuals. Each day brings new opportunities for learning and finding ways to enhance the support I provide.
As we enter the new year, I extend my best wishes to everyone for a wonderful 2024. Happy New Year!
