Marnie, my wife had surgery to repair a torn tendon on her left ankle. The recovery included two weeks no weight-bearing on the leg. I had to use a wheel chair to transport her from room to room in our house, as well as to followup medical appointments. I pre-arranged with ComfortKeepers Mid-Atlantic to have a Caregiver stop by four-five hours a day to help me, help my wife recover. The Caregiver, Ms. Fatmata Kabba was an absolute joy. She was there for my wife during those times I could not be home. She helped her with bathing, personal needs in the bathroom, reminded her of medications to take when necessary, hand-washed dishes that I did not have a chance to get to, and accompanied me when I took Marnie to medical appointments; she would easily help Marnie get in the wheelchair and take her to the medical office while I parked the car. Other times, she would sit and talk with us about our varied life experiences. Fatmata was extremely helpful to both of us. She is a true caring and compassionate professional. Suffice to say, I highly recommend the services of ComfortKeepers and in particular, Fatmata Kabba. If we ever need those support services again, I will contact ComfortKeepers and ask for Fatmata by name.
