Pas Or Care Agency

PAs or Care Agency? The thing that you need most if you’re disabled, Is respect and control when you’re being assisted, ‘Cos you have a distance from your personal tasks, Sometimes from birth, so you just need extended. PAs respect, cherish and give you freedom totally, When they’re caring or simply just standing by, And because you choose them by interview, Friendship’s possible, and they can maybe say hi. However, if you want banter or direction, Home care from a care agency is right, Because they'll help you move and function, Letting you overcome a confusing night. They talk about their families instantly, And the films and shows that they've seen, And if they can, they'll talk about nutrition, Give you a clue about what grams mean. But, I have to say, they’re very often grouchy, If you ask for something new or different, And there’s domineering carer-types that chide, Who want to control what’s your entitlement. I had PAs for approximately seven years, But I think my mum hated them, though silently, Because they loved and treasured me and my beliefs, Which objectified in proclivities to live fluently. I hope that one day I leave the home care system, It’s not for disabled people anyway, just the elderly, Who are accustomed to their own home environment, So care visits for them are fine most definitely.   I don't like not being free to live my own life, Eating and all else just when they come, are here, And sometimes I need something when they’re gone, When I’m alone, by myself, to shrink and fear.
