Respite Care Leaves No Time for Landscaping

Respite Caregiver Needs Respite Care

This respite caregiver needs respite care!

My 90-yr-old mother-in-law was diagnosed with Alzheimers /dementia and could no longer live alone. By zoning law, the only way to build her a home on our single-family property was to build a pool house and pool.

Meanwhile, my 86-yr-old mother has battled breast cancer three times, kidney failure, and congestive heart failure. In October 2008, she had a near-fatal car accident and is still recovering from her injuries. Now her cancer has metastasized to her brain and lungs.

Our time is focused on providing round-the-clock care for our elderly mothers. The pool landscaping was never completed. The whole yard has suffered! Our house also recently flooded from a busted pipe. We’re 11 weeks into a major renovation to repair the damage.

HELP! I would love to have a beautiful place to escape and relax by the pool when I have a spare moment!
