I enjoyed logging on and seeing daily videos and photos of what Tete did in her everyday life in the caregiver group on Facebook. I've been a part of the group for almost 3 months, but those pictures and videos made me feel like I was somewhat part of her family. She was beautiful and seemed like such a sweet lady. Thinking of her family at this time.
