Assistant Needed for Part-Time Daytime Work
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'm interested in as long as I have the energy. My children are my highest priority, and I want to be as involved as possible. This means that with the help of an assistant, I need to pick up from preschool in the afternoons as often as I can manage. It is therefore important that you like children and feel comfortable working with them, or are open to becoming more comfortable with it. Other things I enjoy doing include spending time outdoors, exercising, cooking, baking, watching football, listening to music, and more. I also value having some personal time occasionally. I need help with most aspects of my daily life. Everything from pursuing my interests to getting dressed and undressed, using the toilet, or showering. I have no problem communicating through speech and writing. I can stand to some extent with the help of assistive devices, and I have all the equipment I need: a wheelchair, a permobil, a slide board, a shower chair, a walker, and a lift. I have my own car that I can drive myself and also have access to adapted transport services. I have FSHD (Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy) in a severe form. FSHD affects virtually all muscles in the body to varying degrees, progressively weakens over time, and causes chronic pain. I also become mentally tired easily due to living with the physical conditions and limitations the disease imposes. I am looking for assistants willing to work daytime hours 07:00-17:30, primarily Monday-Friday, though weekend work requests may arise. I hope you are a thoughtful person who can take instruction well. It would be a plus if you are relatively close to my age, but this is not a requirement—personality is what matters most.
