Dad's Going All Out

Author: Joseph Sandoval

      When my dad decided he wanted to move out of our guest house and into a place of his own, I was a little nervous. Mom’s been gone for a while now and while dad is mentally just as young as ever, I worry that since his body’s a bit frailer he may have a hard time taking care of himself. The good news is, he moved out about six months ago and things are going great! He loves the independence of being on his own again and I feel much better since we got him a security system from allhomesecurity.com and a nurse to check in once a week. Jenny helps dad shop for groceries and clean the house a bit which allows him to do the things he really loves like napping and fishing! I’m glad we were able to come to a compromise when it came to dad moving out – the last thing I wanted was for him to feel like I was mothering him! He’s happier now than ever and so are we.
