Was she prepared to become the primary caregiver for her mother? Linda says: “It takes a close personal relationship with the Lord… We don’t know what He’s preparing us for, but He is always up to something.”

Would Linda have done anything differently before and during caring for her mother? Linda explains why she would definitely be on high alert with the caregivers coming into her house or at the assisted care centers.
