–  Walter Tracey, Family Member

“My husband had Parkinsons psychosis (hallucinations, paranoia and delusions) in addition to the tremors and other issues of digestion and breathing. After caring for him at home, we reached a point where I could no longer do it by myself. The best thing that ever happened for us was to find ElderHealth & Living and get the best staff we could have ever imagined. Nine plus workers did what we had been trying to do every day. My husband felt secure for the first time in a long time. He called the gentlemen in his house his fraternity brothers and they all bonded together to take care of each other. They enjoyed meals together and going to the Recreation Center where they played games and listened to our favorite oldies. Live music in the house was a real plus because his family were all performing musicians and it took him back in time to happier times. Having the meals cooked on site from scratch was a pure delight for him. Thanksgiving and Christmas were special times at the house, in addition to birthdays and anniversaries. Everyone enjoyed any excuse to have a party and have fun. But the best part was the caring staff and how they allowed my husband to do for himself whatever he could still do. Staff supported his dignity to the very end. Placing my husband at ElderHealth was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life but it turned out to be a blessing, for both of us. ElderHealth rescued our sanity and allowed us to be husband and wife again.”
