About who needs care: I am in a wheelchair and we don't have a car. I can transfer from my bed to my wheelchair but need someone to put hands under my armpits to help me. I love to read & would love if someone could take me to the library and Barnes & Noble. Also, someone to take us (me & husband Larry who is able bodied) out to eat. Someone to take Larry to grocery store and to spend time with me when he is gone. I also love arts and crafts. We have 2 cats. About the care needs: Someone who is friendly & not aggressive personality. Someone who can help me transfer to my chair from my bed and also in and out of their car. Need room for my wheelchair in their trunk. No cars that are high in the air like and SUV because I am too disabled to get into it and out of it and could fall. Not much upper body strength. I only weigh 87 pounds at 5 foot 5. So I'm not heavy to transfer. Can't walk right now but a couple steps to get in my wheelchair. Can't stand by myself. Have physical therapist who comes once a week to help me learn to walk again but its going to take at least 6 months or longer to get back where I was when I could walk with my walker. It would be cool if they also love to read or do arts and crafts.
