Testimonials
Where to begin…. let’s start at the beginning three years ago! My husband started the program two half days per week. It quickly went to three and then four days. Well, he wasn’t content with half days because his comment was, “What law says I can’t be there earlier?”, so he started full days! He wakes up and asks, daily, if we are going anywhere and when I reply we are going to FAU, he is ready to get up and go.
We are greeted by Sophia, Krista, or staff, as we arrive. Everyone is always pleasant and welcoming. They take him, smiling, to see his “buddies”. The varied activities keep him busy and interested. He loves the music and art best but participates in all activities as best as he can. He leaves in the afternoon “exhausted “. We discuss his day on our way home, thanks to the calendar, and staff, I know what he did.
Staff couldn’t be nicer, or better to him. They know his various medical issues, so they always watch out and take extra care with him. This puts me at ease and gives me some time for my self-care.
I can’t say enough for how this program means to both of us. I talk about it to all his doctors and our friends dealing with Dementia/ Alzheimer’s! It is a life saver.
Thanks for all you do for us and all the participants! I also appreciate all you do for me, his wife and caregiver, through quiet talks and support groups, it is greatly appreciated and much needed. You all rock!
