Bea,
Defined:
She was once a curious baby, taking her first cautious steps; a small
child, playing with her doll; a young lady, giddy with
anticipation for her first date; a new bride, attentive to
her husband; a young mother, giving her children all they
needed; an intelligent lady, successful in business; a
maturing woman, eager to watch her grandchildren grow and
provide care to her ailing partner....She never knew she'd
become labeled as a "nuisance" by her neighbors once
she became a misunderstood "old lady" with early
dementia. The one thing she would always be was a very
independent woman, filled with life, who was never afraid to
speak her mind. She was unique, spirited, and
feisty. She wasn't perfect, but she was human, and she
had rights and demanded respect. And she was adamant
about one thing: She did not want to go to a nursing
home.
There was no
one else quite like Bea. And there is no one else quite
like the loved one for whom you are now providing care.
This website was created to honor Bea and to provide help,
hope, understanding, and resources for those of you who have
aging loved ones who wish to remain as independent as
possible. |
