[quote=Anonymous]Taking them to doctor’s appointments and taking notes/reporting back would have been such a lifesaver for me. Also taking them to the grocery store and letting them walk the aisles and spend ten minutes looking at the different mustards when they don’t even like mustard and have no intention of buying mustards. When my mom was starting to fail she loved going to the grocery store and wandering around but as someone who works full time with lots of other obligations it was so hard for me to have the patience to let her wander and enjoy. I had a mission which was to get groceries which contradicted her mission of just being out and enjoying the experience. I would have paid anything at that point. I’d have paid $30-$35/ hour for that which is the going rate for caregivers in my area of Loudoun. [/quote]
