Mary was a retired teacher who took pride in her independence and daily routines. After a fall left her struggling with mobility, her son, Daniel, introduced her to coastal home care givers. Initially hesitant, Mary feared her days of independence were over. Then Lisa, her caregiver, arrived. More than just providing assistance, Lisa took an interest in Mary’s love for reading and began bringing books to discuss together. Their conversations reignited Mary’s passion for literature and gave her a renewed sense of connection. Mary soon realized that accepting help wasn’t about losing autonomy but gaining companionship and a vibrant new chapter.
