Wow, Lori- I'm sorry to hear this....Is the previous care-giver done for good? I don't know if she moved far away or not, But if not would she be available to do any part-time help ? You will be in our Prayers ! 2 months is pretty short notice.

I am in shock! To add insult to injury she signed a contract that she had to give me 6 months notice. I did not see this coming. She just had a week off. That leaves me only 2 months & my previous caregiver gave me 6 months notice & 2 more to be available for training. I am a wreck.
Of course you know that I know the first people to contact. My family only calls to ask "How are things going?" One would think they would be the first persons to say "Lori, we need to get going on this... what can we do to help you?" Not my family! Believe it or not my biggest concern is my companion dog that everyone around here loves and everyone I run into comments on how pretty or beautiful she is. I would just be sobbing or worse if I could not be with her. I feel like I am being thrown out for garbage. ~Lori -- “Petting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer.” ― Dean Koontz
