2 2017 ANNUAL REPORT PINELLAS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 3 Area Agency on Aging of Pasco-Pinellas ACT II: SCENE ONE FEATS OF CAREGIVING

When you walk into the home shared by Ted and his Aunt Shirley, you are greeted by an atmosphere of love. Since Shirley, 90, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease eight years ago, Ted, 78, has selflessly cared for his aunt.

A few years ago, Ted recognized that Shirley was growing lethargic. For Christmas, he surprised her with a deer head chihuahua named Sparky. Sparky and Shirley fell in love immediately.

“She was so happy her face lit up,” says Ted. “Sparky brought her back that life, happiness and joy that she was missing.”

“To be a caregiver you have to have a sincere interest in helping someone,” says Ted. “You have to be interested in keeping your loved one healthy and happy; whether in pain or feeling down. That’s what caregiving is all about. It’s like being a mother to a baby.”

“We get hundreds of calls from people seeking incontinence supplies,” says Caregiving is no easy task. Just ask Sandy Waite (above) and Sue Graham (not shown), who provide full-time care for their mothers. Ann-Marie Winter,

“Caregiving is the hardest job I’ve ever done,” says Sandy. “It’s all-consuming.” executive director of

The first thing you notice about Sherwood White, 81, is his energy and personality. Sherwood lives his life with gusto, and he’s eager to share those positive vibes with everyone he meets. Lucky visitors to his home might be treated to a wonderful rendition of “Can’t Help Falling In Love” `a la Elvis Presley – complete with the hair, glasses and swagger.

Many can’t tell he can’t see as well as he used to see. When his sight started to fail, he was unable to continue operating his business. That’s when Lighthouse of Pinellas, a Pinellas Community Foundation grant recipient, stepped in to provide support. With the help of tools and instruction from Lighthouse, Sherwood was able to set up his business at home. He uses a variety of tools that enlarge images and screens, and he uses audio cues to help him work and play.

“Through the Lighthouse, I was able to set up everything here in my home,” says Sherwood. “I had to learn how to use the tools Lighthouse provided, but I had an outstanding instructor.”

“The National Eye Institute predicts that 1 in 3 Americans over the age of 65 will be faced with a vision-impairing eye disease,” says Kimberly Church, president of Lighthouse of Pinellas.

Rene stands less than 5 feet tall, and her welcome is enveloping. However, you might not recognize her Rene. strength and bravery when you first meet her.

Born and raised Jewish in Czechoslovakia, Rene is a Holocaust survivor. She was separated from her parents at Auschwitz at age 16. Sadly, her parents did not survive.

Rene and her sister, Ana, did survive Auschwitz only to be sent to a slave labor camp in Germany. Toward the end of the war, Nazi soldiers hid during the continuous bombings by the Allied forces. During one of these bombings, Rene, her sister and two others took the opportunity to successfully escape.

Today, Rene lives alone but has the benefit of many support services from Gulf Coast Jewish Family and Community Services, a Pinellas Community Foundation grant recipient.

At 92, having been blessed with a loving husband, five children, 12 grandchildren, six great-grandchildren and three great-great- grandchildren, Rene doesn’t dwell on her early life but works to make sure the world does not forget it.
