Spring is in the air and I am certainly looking forward to the change in weather! Many of you know that spring is a busy travel season for me (notwithstanding the corona virus). However, I made sure that I was in Oakland for the Amazing Care Network Lunch and Learn on February 20th. Our guest speaker was Pastor Kevin Yriarte who is the founder of the Journey of Faith Church located in Covina, California, and Chaplain for the La Verne Police Department. Years ago, Kevin and I worked together at Health Net where he managed a large claims department.
The spread of the COVID-19 virus is likely changing things in your area. I have reflected yet again on how precious life is and how family and friends can help us through challenging times, like the one we are experiencing with this virus.
I share more in this month’s Letter from the CEO.

“I was introduced to Amazing Care around the time that I was dealing with my father-in-law going through Hospice and all of the care that goes along with that. I don’t think anybody realizes until you’re in it. There is no how-to book out there. But Cora and Amazing Care have developed tools that help walk you through it, and give you a way to think about some things — such as retrofitting a house for an elderly person. Also, questions that help you focus on how you, yourself, want to live in your later years as you move from totally independent to semi-independent to possibly needing a care home and then the next phases of life. I thought that was extraordinary. We’re now in an era, with the longevity of life, where it’s not at all unusual for 70 year-olds to be taking care of their parents.”
