My wife Sandra, is full of love and joy. Most mornings you can find her singing a happy tune. Sandra has an inner light that never ceases to shine, even when we are challenged.
Sandra is devoted to her family and is a good and loving friend. She has given the past 38 years of her life to our special needs daughter Ashley. In her 24/7 service, she finds a deep satisfaction. She knows she is fulfilling her purpose. Sandra has a deep and loving faith. Her life is not easy.
An average day is up at 7:30 AM and she starts Ashley's medications, breathing treatments, percussion treatments, and diapering. Tube feeding also begins at the same time. On most days Ashley is up in her wheelchair by 10:30 AM and Sandra begins other tasks. At noon it is medicine time again and at 5 PM it is feeding time and it's 7 PM it is medicine time again. At 10 PM Ashley is put into bed and the breathing treatment, percussion treatment, and diapering begin again. Through all of this exhausting work, Sandra has a serenity. She is resolved in her loving care. She finds great joy and giving herself to the good of others.
