Rediscovering Joy Through Caregiving

[cewido]

Margaret always found joy in tending to her vibrant garden, filled with roses, tomatoes, and fragrant lavender. For years, she spent mornings watering plants and afternoons arranging fresh bouquets for friends. However, arthritis made bending and lifting difficult, forcing her to step away from her beloved pastime. Concerned for her well-being, her daughter arranged forhome caregivers in Santa Ana to provide daily support. At first, Margaret resisted, worried she would lose her independence. But when she met Olivia, a caregiver with a passion for gardening, everything changed. Olivia helped Margaret plant flowers, repot herbs, and create a raised garden bed to ease the strain on her joints. With renewed enthusiasm, Margaret once again found solace in her garden, embracing each day with purpose.
