Response to unforgettable patients

 

When I use to take care of clients in their homes,,I mett the best lady ever!!!!!!!
Her name was Marie she was 88 years old, She had long silver hair and she lived alone.
Other cna's use to hate going to her house,,they thought she was difficult and down right out of her mind.
In a way she was but I saw the good in her and she made me laugh..She use to sing to me all the time and then eventually we would sing together..."I'll be loving you always" was her song..The words were soooo pretty..."I'll be loving you always,not for just an hour, not for just a day, not for just a year but always"
She had charissma beyond belief and would shake her booty in her dress while walking to the shower..She also had names for her hhhmmmm private,,calling it her Peachtree.. Now some might take offense to that ,but I just loved her and thought she was a hoot.
My husband had bought me a mini hand held recorder so that I would always have her version on tape singing "I'll be loving you always" ..She really did have a good voice also for 88..I was pretty amazed.I cherish that tape and play it now and again to remember her and her spit fire spirit... She passed away after a hip fracture at a nursing home. I had went to visit her there a couple of times before she died..
I never mett anyone like Marie,,she was just so misunderstood by others..She was my all time favorite woman to take care of.. R.I.P. Marie I still miss you...
