Hi, I'm Rhonda. I took care of my mother who had COPD and dementia (and would not give up her cigarettes--period) and I relished every minute of it--even though she had lost half her small intestines and I had a LOT of very messy diapers to change.

I knew Rhonda the whole time she was caring for Barb from 20007 to 2019. Barbara was suffering from dementia, early Alzheimer's, end-stage COPD, severe osteoporosis, and had no bowel control due to losing almost half her small intestines when I was just an intern at _____ Hospital. I remember that day. We almost lost her to an intestinal rupture. As B’s dementia worsened, Rhonda's love and care for her only grew gentler and more attentive. No matter how badly Rhonda might have been treated, she treated her patient with all the care and love someone would have cared for their own premature infant, with the same concern, gentleness, and diligent care. She had to literally carry B to the doctor's office toward the end. Every time I thought the end was near, though, Rhonda has affected a rescue through extreme nutritional protocols, sunlight, and exercise. I couldn't recommend anyone higher, in short, than Rhonda if you want someone who treats old people as if she still sees the young person inside them, worthy of the same respect they once commanded in life when they had their full faculties. I understand she's a gourmet cook and an exceptional writer as well. Hire her and, for once, rest easy knowing your loved ones are in good hands She has the best heart of any patient I've ever had. Sincerely, Dr. J__________, M.D.
