    Gentiva was informative, respectful and most important very responsive to my family and my mothers…read moreneeds during hospice care. I have used other companies for other family members in the past and Gentiva stood out and above any other company. The quality of care was awesome.

    Here is my experience. From V.G…read more I want to share my story as caregiver in hopes of encouraging others. I had been married to my husband for 32 years when he became ill but we had been separated since 2000 when I was diagnosed with cancer. I would only hear from him when he needed something. He was so much like my mom who chose me out of five daughters to be her care person even when she wasn't really sick. I hadn't heard from my husband for a long time but he called and explained he was getting really tired on his walks in the mornings and had to take breaks. That was not like the agile man he had always been so I took him to our doctor who had cared for both of us through the years. He was diagnosed with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy which is similar to Parkinson's but does not respond to medication and as the disease progresses results the ability to swallow gets so poor that aspiration pneumonia continues to occur eventually causing the death of the patient. I took care of him for a year all by myself but he became too weak and ended up in a skilled nursing home. I managed his care and was his care agent until he passed in July of this year. My focus had been so much on his care that I forgot about my own. I became very depressed and during Covid we visited via FaceTime several times per week. Some days I let my own personal appearance slide and spent the day figuring out ways to cheer him up on FaceTime. He looked forward to our visits as there was no one else visiting him. We sang together, I drew pictures for him and I told him Bible stories and other short stories. I remember when he began to change and become less with the program. I would blink back tears and pretend to be happy just like I did with my mom. He died on July 23 and I felt quite dead as well staying in the house, skipping showers and sleeping a lot. My closest sister who has lived with me since 2000 was so helpful as well as my daughter who loved him as "dad," the only one she could remember. I thought about dying a lot and I was angry with myself for standing by this man who would never do the same for me. My sister and I were together that day when she had a stroke right in my face. I was so afraid!!! Somehow I forget myself and focused all my attention on my sister's care. I had been going non stop when I felt I was dying as I tried to envision caring for yet another sick person. My sister and I can talk about anything and she understands I can't take care of her in my broken down state of health. I'm on a walker and leaning on my daughter who lives with me for help. I realize if my sister came home to be cared for most of the work would fall on my daughter and I'm not putting my daughter through the same life I've lived all these years. My sister is applying for Med-Cal and seeking an assisted living situation. We are staying in touch and encouraging each other. A caregiver must take care of themselves too. Like me, others may have been trained to be caregiver in dysfunctional situations. I loved my husband and the Hospice made it easier on me to try and cope with the ambivalence I felt toward him. From now on I must take care of me first so I can be a better caregiver to someone else. I pray you stay connected to God as I did and accept help from others as you go through your healing process. I'm thankful that Gentiva has told me I'm not alone and that they are available to help me through this process of going forward.

    I am super irritated that this is the second time the Hope Chest has been picky about what they…read morechose to accept as donations. I am not donating poor quality items. The items are in great to excellent shape. My first experience with them as far as donations was when I needed a couch to be picked up. I heard they would pick up items. When I called they gave me the third degree and acted like it had to be brand new for them to pick it up. My couch was perfectly fine to donate and the family who received it was more than happy. Because in the end, I told Hope Chest to just forget it! They obviously didn't want my donation. Well, today I called ahead of time and the person I talked to said, "Make sure you don't have a truck load of donations right before closing!" She didn't say anything about them not accepting toys of any kind. I would not have wasted a trip. I also agree with some of the other posts, their prices are pretty high for a thrift store. Yes, sometimes the manager will work with you. But I don't like to haggle. I would rather just see a good/fair price, pick it up and take it home. I also wish they would have student/teacher discount day like some of the other thrift stores have. It would be nice. :)

    Just cruising by and was drawn in with a 50% off sign? And it was!…read more Cool second hand store that was packed both with goods and people. I wish I had more time to go through the whole thing slower but not today. The service was busy for sure being half off everything. Last words...saved for another day.
