Tammy I Glenn, Founder

Hi! My name is Tammy I. Glenn and my journey began when I was eight years old, and my mother had a tragic accident that changed our lives forever. My mother became disabled and eventually, totally bedbound • In the 17 years that followed, my dad and I cared for my mom, pioneering a lot of everyday solutions from scratch • My mother died in 1992 and at that time, I vowed to use my family’s experience to help others in a similar situation • Please join me and a community of individuals who—just like you!—are dealing with a homebound situation.

Today, Tammy is the Informal Caregiver’s Caregiver. She serves as an advisor to KCET and to the National Senior Citizen’s Bureau on issues about care and aging, and she is a regularly featured columnist in DisabledDealerMagazine.com • Home healthcare is a challenge, but it can get easier—especially if we work together.
You are not alone!
