A Little Happiness and Funny Client
I can never imagine what day at work is going to be like so i am prepared for everything the good the bad and the down right ugly.
I work with dementia so no one day is the same as the other.
The good times with my client are really good but the bad times are not so great and makes it really hard to work.
Working with my client is like working with children so funny the questions and the answers that she come out with.
I care greatly for my client but it is so hard to get to work and i have only a couple of weeks left until i start my new job which i am looking forward too it is so hard for me to leave her but i dont have a choice i need to get back to normal and be home a reasonable time and have a life.
The things that my client tells are so funny sometimes quite rude or she may think that i have said something and she will answer as she did today and she replied why are you on a diet i never said you were big or fat, or the other way she talks is something like what would i do if you were not here how long until i see you again she needs reassurance all the time.
On a normal day it is up at seven in the morning and leave about forty minutes later, i never know what sort of day i am going to have but as long as it is not so hard with my client i don't mind.
When i start my day it will still be early but it will be easier and home early no buses to catch not sitting for four hours a day no feeling of constant tiredness.
But i feel cruel leaving my client as i cannot say goodbye she is sweet in a different way.
This is not such an interesting post but i wanted to share

You challenge in life seems to be dealing with your job. I do understand, how you like part of it but will be glad when the other part is finished.
Hi
I have a reason to leave well a couple of them one is it is so far to travel but i really love this client she is so funny and i am the only one she will respond to me but i am leaving and i hope that the person who takes over gives her the time and doesn't just sit down and do nothing.

That's a hard one, because you don't have any idea how the next person will interact with your client. Can you discuss her with the new person? I'd be concerned too.
I hope i meet them before i leave as i don't want to leave her with an idiot as there are loads out there that do not care one bit.

They lie or the companies don't watch enough i have called couple companies and said that your carers are not good so couple times carers have been changed.
God bless you for working with this dear person. Dementia is such a terrible disease. And it affect everyone involved. I hope you can maintain your positive attitude always.

Hi Barb
Thank you I am lucky really I have worked with some amazing people who have dementia and two that were Iranian as well as i can speak Farsi it was great for me.
I do like the client I work with and I wish each and every day a happy one for her.
I am ready to step back and have some time where I can really just work with other things as well as the new job as well.
Thankyou
