After
coming
to
the
depressing
realization
that
my
mother
was
not
so
much
being
cared
for
as
much
as
she
was
being
warehoused
in
the
memory
care
facility
in
which
she
was
residing,
I
wondered
if
there
was
some
way
she
could
be
provided
with
better
care.
I
did
some
research
and
came
upon
Inspired
Living,
which
led
to
my
connecting
with
their
Marketing
Director,
Luisa
Fulla,
about
what
Inspired
Living
would
offer
my
mom
that
was
different
from
my
mom's
current
situation,
or
any
other
memory
care
unit.
Luisa
gave
me
many
assurances
that
Inspired
Living
offered
so
much
more
for
their
residents
than
other
memory
care
facilities.
But
this
was
a
salesperson,
and
I
didn't
know
what
to
believe.
At
that
point,
based
on
my
experiences,
I
was
more
than
a
little
burned
out
by
the
assisted
Living
industry.
Also,
Inspired
Living
had
an
a
la
carte
system
for
additional
services,
so
I
envisioned
being
in
another
bad
situation
with
potentially
more
fees.
But
then
I
went
back
to
visit
my
mom
at
her
facility
and
really
saw
it
for
what
it
was...a
grim,
very
locked
down
environment,
care
givers
who
seemed
remote,
and
an
environment
that
seemed
toxic
in
almost
every
way.
I
threw
caution
to
the
wind
and
got
my
mom
out
of
that
place
and
had
her
transferred
to
Inspired
Living.
Wow,
wow
and
wow,
what
a
difference
Inspired
Living
made.
A
Mr
White
offered
some
very
welcome
help
during
the
move-in,
something
that
that
never
would
have
happened
at
the
other
place.
The
food
was
fantastic.
The
a
la
carte
service
was
not
a
problem.
The
people
associated
with
Inspired
Living
were
amazingly
great--every
one
of
them.
Overall,
on
top
of
all
the
great
things
I
discovered
about
Inspired
Living,
what
I
grew
to
really
appreciate
was
that
somehow
they
allowed
my
mom,
in
the
throes
of
dementia
and
in
need
of
real
care,
to
get
the
care
she
absolutely
needed
while
at
the
same
time
experiencing
a
life
that
was,
for
her,
full
and
relevant.
At
Inspired
Living,
my
mom
went
from
being
uncharacteristically
withdrawn
to
being
the
best
version
of
herself
that
she
could
be,
getting
to
the
point
where
she
was
once
again
competitive
and
even
laughing
at
times.
No
small
feat.
Everything
she
lacked
at
the
other
facility,
she
was
receiving
at
Inspired
Living.
In
sum,
if
I
had
to
do
it
all
over
again,
the
ONLY
place
I
would
trust
with
my
mother's
care
is
Inspired
Living.
