TESTIMONIALS

I want to thank FATE for saving my husband’s life as I truly think that is exactly what happened.  After Carole helped me to get my husband off antipsychotic drugs while in a nursing home, within five days he was mentally almost back to his normal self.  He has no memory of the four months while he was on the drugs in the facility.  I hope to bring him home soon.  Thanks for all the time, energy and many wonderful things FATE has done for some many people."
Sue Spriggs….Sacramento, CA

"I have a great appreciation for FATE since spending 5 weeks in a rehab center when I broke my leg.  Fortunately, I was able to be my own advocate and believe me it was necessary on several occasions.  My experience gave me a new appreciation of Carole Herman and the accomplishments of FATE.
Rosalee, Folsom, CA

“My family was at the end of their rope.  We had no where to turn and we did not know our rights.  The elder care available through traditional methods was substandard at best.  That’s when I called FATE.  I would recommend this amazing organization to anyone seeking protection for their elderly and sick loved ones.  Without FATE, the end of my father’s life would have been a tragedy.  But with FATE, and their invaluable services, the end was filled with honor, respect and dignity.”
Anne Bruce, Charleston, SC

“Not only has FATE been a tremendous help to my husband and me but the advice has taught us how to prepare our children for our senior years.

I cannot begin to thank FATE for making us feel as though we have done everything humanly possible to provide our mother with the care she deserves.”
Bev Nesselrode, Navarre, OH

FATE saved my mother’s life by arming me with knowledge of Patients’ Rights when my mother was a patient in a nursing home.  I was then able to get her out of the facility and into an acute hospital where she was treated for pneumonia, UTI and over medication even though I had instructed the facility in writing that my mother was not to have any antipsychotic drugs.”
Beth Records, Branford, CT

“Carole Herman, President of the Foundation Aiding the Elderly (FATE) was recommended to me by a wise and respected attorney in Sacramento, California.  FATE is committed to protecting our aging and vulnerable loved ones.  She made us aware of the injustices that occur in the name of “healthcare.” 

My 80-year-old mother’s death was caused injustices (excessive and harmful procedures) performed in a Northern California Hospital.  FATE’s thorough and professional dedicated efforts in my mother’s case will ensure that her tragic death will not be in vain.  I am, and will forever be, indebted to Carole Herman and her dedicated staff at FATE.
Rickie Chipman, R.N., Bainbridge Island, WA
