Additional Information

In late 2011, my mother suffered a catastrophic relapse of Neurosarcoidosis. She required intensive personal care, which I provided for her. I shopped for her, cooked for her, maintained the house for her, drove her to appointments and functions, administered her medications, advocated for her on the phone with her doctors and insurance companies, provided ambulatory assistance and even took care of her hygienic needs as her condition dictated until she passed away.
