About me

Occupation Caregiver/Musician/Counselor/general all-around flunky:)...before beginning this journey of caregiving, I worked as a child and family therapist in a residental facility.
Location United States
Introduction ~I am a caregiver (with my Dad) for my mother who suffered a serious stroke in April, 2000...we moved back to the South as a result of this family crisis...it has been quite an unexpected, interesting, and difficult journey. I work as Bereavement Coordinator for a hospice company. I enjoy serving as a musician for the Catholic church and in various roles in my own church. I've been blogging since 2007 and have appreciated this way of self-expression (the "deep" and the not so much!) and connecting with others....I value your comments and your friendships!~
