As we were leaving the restaurant, we noticed an older couple. The 80+ year old husband was struggling to get his frail wife transferred from her portable wheelchair back into his car. God has a way putting us right where we need to be, as my friend, who is also certified in home health care and I went over to offer him assistance.
He was very grateful stating,  "Thank you so very much. I have a hard time getting Theresa back in the car. We've been married 65 years and we have always liked to go out."

Remember, when caregiving...
No matter what the task, always ask your loved one for his/her help. Let him/her do for him/herself first!

Then, you'll be prepared if you get stuck in the snow.
