About Jesse

Jesse is almost too wonderful to be real! Between Christmas and New Year's (2022) our 86 year old father (J) was released into in home hospice. His 84 year old wife (G) has her own health issues and none of us have any nursing skills and all of us were kind shell shocked by the rapidly deteriorating situation. Jesse to the rescue: from his first shift, he showed a level of compassion, generosity, and expertise that simply can't be overstated. He only had 1 or 2 shifts before J was in a coma (such a shame, cause J would have got along with Jesse like a house on fire), but for the rest of J's life (a short week) Jesse brought Jazz/Blues music to play for J (J's favorite), he sat and talked with him, he washed him, shaved him, trimmed his hair, etc. He regularly massaged his limbs and moved him into different positions to make him comfortable/keep from getting bedsores. And he calmed & reassured G too. Now he keeps G company 6 evenings a week.
