We are a couple, both in our seventies. Our daughter was diagnosed with Parkinson’s at the young age of 38. She is married and at the time, her daughter was just five years old. She has reached the stage when she needs help with things that, due to our age, we are no longer able to provide. We were lucky, beyond our hopes, to find the amazing support of Calibre Quality Care for our daughter, which in turn makes life so much better for all of the family.
