- About Me
- My name is Valerie. I am Caregiver for my husband David who has Multiple System Atrophy with Orthostatic Hypotension. We have been married for 20 years now, and have 5 wonderful children. I currently work at UTEX Corporation in Weimar 50 hours a week to support medical costs for our family. David is currently receiving SS benifits, but has to wait 5 more months for his Medicare Insurance to kick in. It has been a tough road, but we take 1 day at a time. At least my work is 1 mile away so I can stop in and check on him during the day, and our high school daughter does the same.
