"The biggest hardship that I have faced in my life as 69 year old grandmother is taking care of my sick daughter (since June of 2017 and she is 40 years old) who can barely do anything for herself. She is partially blond and the same time can hardly walk on her own due to her sickness. As a result, I am not able to carry out my daily activities as I used to. "
