Sandy

"It's a tough road for anybody with any ailment to look after really. Stoke patients are unpredictable"

Sandy cared for her husband who was already disabled from multiple car accidents but then suffered from Strokes and multiple TAI's (transient ischaemic attack).

They both moved down to Cornwall in the late 90's and soon after they moved Sandy became her husbands carer. Sandy still managed to keep her job and look after their land and farm, due to carers checking in on her husband 3 times a day.

Sandy attended and still attends Constantine Carers Group which was an outlet for her to meet new life long friends and step away from her caring role. Now she attends in order to give advice or comfort to new carers in similar situations.
