Hiring a caregiver
After hearing about his mother’s bruises, Michael couldn’t stop thinking about how vulnerable she was. It was clear she needed more help than they were providing, so he decided to hire a professional caregiver. He felt terrible about not acting sooner and wanted to make sure nothing like this ever happened again.
Though Cathy initially insisted she was doing just fine, Michael sat down with her and explained how much it meant to him that she stay safe. After some convincing, she reluctantly agreed to try having someone help with daily tasks. What none of them expected was that this solution would create a whole new problem—and a shocking one at that.
