Thank you so much for such a lovely review. I can honestly speak for all the care staff, your dad was such a special man, they are as fond of him as he is of them. He used to chase the geese away from the van when a certain carer visited him, as the geese scared her. He made the carers smile every visit, and as you quite rightly said he was a very independent man, and it took a lot of time, care and encouragement for him to accept help.He spoke very fondly of his wife, and family, I know that his grandchildren always brought out that lovely smile.We will continue to go see him, otherwise he will have withdrawn symptoms, from the carers joking with him.Such a lovely gentleman.
