Heather Adams is a caregiver from Right at Home Spokane, whose compassion and dedication have transformed the lives of Dick and Lois. Heather is far more than a caregiver; she is a steady source of comfort, companionship, and hope. She supports Dick with intuitive, personalized care, from medication reminders and soothing leg massages for his neuropathy to engaging him in puzzles, games, and even sponge dart target practice, which she introduced to brighten his days. Her creativity extends to the kitchen as well, where she prepares nutritious meals and beautifully crafted smoothies that nourish both body and spirit.
Heather’s commitment also brings peace of mind to Lois. Her meticulous housekeeping, thoughtful communication, and readiness to step in allow Lois to attend outings and activities knowing Dick is in compassionate hands. Whether resetting the home after Bible study or teaching Lois how to fold fitted sheets, Heather brings warmth, grace, and excellence to every moment. She exemplifies what it means to serve with heart and live the Right at Home mission. 💖

A heartwarming initiative called the “Grandma Stand” offers people a chance to sit down and talk with volunteer grandmothers about life’s challenges.
The idea began in Brooklyn when reporter Mike Matthews saw how his 95-year-old grandmother, Eileen Wilkinson, profoundly helped a coworker through weekly chats. Matthews set up a lemonade stand with a laptop so anyone could video chat with Wilkinson, who spoke with hundreds of strangers until her passing at 102.
Today, the concept lives on in McKinney, Texas, where local grandmas volunteer to listen and share wisdom. The stand provides comfort, advice, and a listening ear—proving that empathy and life experience can make a big difference.
