I have the best private nurse that money can not buy.

A little over 3 years ago, she moved in and went full time 24/7. Has save my life several times. I'm very lucky.

2. Blind luck.

Bumped into her one day while she was helping a group of immigrants navigate our country. That is the kind of person she is.

3. Such a majorly lucky event in your life.

It sounds like you show her the appreciation that she is due.

I think mom would have lived a lot longer if she'd have been able to have a private duty nurse. Mom was very reserved, very quiet & refined, yet also very friendly. She started falling a lot and getting more forgetful and was living by herself so we interviewed some caregivers for a 10 hour a day shift, but they were just too strong of a personality for mom, too loud or pushy and then she broke her hip and needed someone 24/7 and it just was way too expensive. We found a nice assisted living place and mom made some good friends and it was good for her medical care - but on dark days I think - what if?
