I am a 35-year-old man living in Tvärred with my partner, our children, and two cats. I am generally a cheerful and active person who wants to do most things I enjoy as long as I have the energy and stamina for it. My children are my highest priority, and I want to be as involved as possible. This means, among other things, that with the help of an assistant, I pick up from preschool in the afternoons as often as I am able to. It is therefore important that you enjoy children and feel comfortable working with them, or are open to learning to be comfortable with them.
Other things I enjoy doing include spending time outdoors, exercising, cooking, baking, watching football, listening to music, and more. I also appreciate having some personal time occasionally.
I need help with most things in my daily life. Everything from pursuing my interests to getting dressed and undressed, using the bathroom, or showering.
I have no problems communicating verbally or in writing. I can stand to some extent with the help of mobility aids, and I have all the equipment I need, including a wheelchair, Permobil, transfer board, shower chair, walking frame, and lift. I have my own car that I can drive myself, and I also have access to a paratransit service. I have FSHD (facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy) in its more severe form. FSHD affects virtually all the muscles in the body to varying degrees, weakens over time, and causes chronic pain. I also become mentally fatigued easily due to living with the physical conditions and limitations the disease presents.
I am looking for assistants willing to work daytime hours from 07:00 to 17:30, primarily Monday through Friday, though requests for weekend work may arise. I hope you are a person who listens well and can take instructions. It would be a plus if you are relatively close to my age, but it is not a requirement—personality is what matters most.I am a 35-year-old man living in Tvärred with my partner, our children, and two cats.
