Anyone who’s heard of Feros Care has heard of Nina! Nina lives her life out loud, with the heart of an artist. Energising, inspiring and entertaining everyone around her. As a young girl growing up in Russia and China she was able to connect with people from all walks of life – and she continues to do so!

The now 98 year old never misses an opportunity to be in the spotlight; after all, the stage is her home.

The question put to me was...

"If i die tomorrow...?"

In my life I have swum the oceans of tranquility. I have been

the healer and the healed

and I have climbed mountains

I thought were too high.

I am ready to fly with the

angels, share my stories,

go drumming and dancing with them

to the unknown.

I look back at the view,

see the many wonderful people who

have been part of my journey

and marvel, where life has taken me.

And yet, if it is not tomorrow

that I fly, come, take

my hand, you too have

much to see.

My age is not a barrier to me.

Ah, now you've got it.

Your smile, will set you free!
