“My primary attendant is very responsible and dependable. A very, very nice and
honest person.”
“Without her help, I wouldn't be able to function. She's
my right arm.”
“She is a kind,
sensitive, caring, understanding lady. We respect each other and because we have been together for
one and a half years, she knows my ways.”
“My primary attendant is a
'God-send.' She helps me bathe, dress, comb my hair and cook, picks
up medications and many other wonderful
things.”
“I need her here. Sometimes she makes important phone calls for
me. She goes beyond her call of
duty for me.”
“She helps in my continual gaining of confidence and does not
inhibit my growth in caring for myself.”
“We share the same
heart beat.”
“Without her, my quality of life would be much less. She engages
me on a daily basis, allowing me to have a freshened sense of my
abilities. I went from working 16-18 hours daily to not being able to
physically work at all, however she allows me to work my mind and
encourages me to do so. I don't know what I would do without
her.”

“My attendant is very important to me because she is
always there for any care I need. She respects and honors my needs. She is also very concerned
about my health.”
“She makes my life
worth living.”
“I can't feed, dress or bathe myself. I am not ambulatory. She
keeps me clean and I am very happy. My caregiver is a gem.”
“She is probably one of the most important people in my life right now. I feel blessed to
have such a caring nursing
attendant.”
“Without my attendant I would have had to be in a nursing home.
My travel would have been extremely limited. I could not have gone to
the doctors, shopping or attend any outside functions.”
“Her homework assistance and general supportiveness is essential.
She can read my moods well and makes
me feel safe. She stays late if my mom is late and my mentally-ill
father is not functioning well, even going as far as making
Thanksgiving dinner without being asked so I would have one. She is supportive when I'm
upset.”
