Suenietawattie Singh greets me with a cheerful hello, then turns to the hot stovetop where she’s tending a small pot of boiling potatoes.
“This is for my client,” Singh explains, with a nod toward the lunch she’s preparing. “I do everything for him.”
I haven’t seen Singh since late 2017, but she’s in the same place I last left her: Schaffer Heights Senior Apartments, where she cares for a homebound older man as part of her job as a home health aide.
Singh moved to Schenectady from Guyana in 2012, after a brief stint with relatives in New York City and New Jersey.
