It’s the little things that remind Sandra that time is moving faster than she’s ready for.
Her mum, once the woman who used to chase her around the house with a towel after bath time, now needs help getting in and out of the shower.
Some mornings, Sandra stares at the kettle, trying to remember if she already turned it on.
Between work calls, sorting prescriptions, and making sure Mum eats something more than toast—it’s easy to forget about herself.
She never thought she’d be a caregiver this early in life.
But here she is.
Holding it down.
Holding her down.
“Mum still has her sharp tongue,” she laughs.
“But she doesn’t always remember where she left her slippers.”
That’s when Sandra reached out to Justintime Healthcare.
She didn’t need someone to replace her.
She needed someone who got it.
Someone who knew how to sit beside Mum during her favorite TV dramas.
Who could help with meals, medication, gentle stretches.
Someone who understood how to support without taking over.
🏠 Now, Sandra has a bit of breathing room.
Time to walk outside.
To journal.
To remember who she is outside of being a daughter.
Her mum?
She’s got a companion she trusts.
A carer who feels like family.
Who knows how she likes her tea and when she wants silence more than conversation.
