In order to manage my conditions, I have to focus on pacing myself and making the best of what little energy I have, along with balancing my medication and pain treatment.I'm looking for a PA, with a good sense of humour and a positive outlook on life, who also understands that my health fluctuates throughout the course of the day. There are days I can tolerate and enjoy conversations, there are also times when I need assistance to get specific tasks done independently of me, whilst I rest in a quiet environment.

A member of my support team can also provide additional support or guidance, when needed.Hours: Due to the nature of my health I will need a PA (s) who is flexible to work changing shifts depending on my health.
