And here is a report from the premiere:
Let me tell you about wonderful people who have found their own ways to grow old. Very individual, all different. Not every path is for everyone.
Gitta and Margareta, our dear mothers, were not completely satisfied with their previous foster care. As responsible children, we therefore thought together about how we could improve our mothers' quality of life. We finally came up with the idea of creating a foster home in our multi-generational house.

We decided not to organize everything ourselves, but to look for a provider who would take on the responsibility. We were able tohttps://www.franz-sales-haus.de/ and this facility for the disabled had the task of finding people who would be a good fit for our two elderly mothers. It was a big challenge and 6 wonderful, young men with disabilities were found. Will it work?
And how does it go on?
We are founding an association that supports people who help or who are helped.
