drinking water at specific times is
just as important?

can maximize its effectiveness on
the human body.

Is It More Than Winter Blues?

setbacks, and disappointments. Many people
use the word “depression” to explain these
kinds of feelings, but depression is much more
than just sadness.
ability to work, study, eat, sleep, and have fun.
The feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and
worthlessness are intense and unrelenting,
with little, if any, relief.
The good news is that depression is a very
treatable condition. AAA T.L.C. is committed to
our client’s physical and emotional health. If
you or your loved ones are experiencing
symptoms of depression, please let us know .
Our patient care coordinators are here to help!

at all—they may feel lifeless, empty, and
apathetic, or men in particular may even feel
angry, aggressive, and restless.

We Love Pets!
Kitties, Doggies and Birds oh my!! At AAA T.L.C we take
care of the entire family and of course this includes the
furry, feathered and scaled kind of family!
We match caregivers to the needs of the family
including animal care! We have clients that have
everything from beautiful parrots, cuddly kittens,
bearded dragons, and of course man’s best friend. We
can feed animals, walk them, take them to vet
appointments, and sit while you are at work or on
vacation. Of course our favorite thing to do is to love
them!
