A driver to take us everywhere, food provided, a coffee carafe brought to my table every morning… seriously, did not think I had a princess bone in my body, BUT- I am still in shock from having to come back to cooking and cleaning and grocery shopping and driving myself everywhere. It was so amazing to be so cared for."
