I have neurological chronic fatigue and pain, hearing loss, and vestibular conditions following a traumatic brain injury, affecting me physically and mentally. I can walk a short distance using a stick or a rollator outdoors. My P.A. will support me to keep my home safe and tidy, perform general housekeeping (shopping and cooking), help organize paperwork, and may need to speak on the phone for me, arranging appointments.
