Everything just could not have been done any better. And I was so grateful. And I just like her [Helper] as a person.
It doesn’t make you feel like you’re depending on someone else. The type of vibe I get is just someone helping as a friend.
High quality people. Good people. People with a heart. And they do exactly what it is that you need help with.
She [Member] actually wants me to be real with her...She just talked about everything...From fitness to politics...
Having the freedom to go where I want to go after dark, it just gives me such joy and I feel safe
I'd say the highlight today was seeing the smile on her [Member] face.
A perfect match!
I felt useful and had fun!
