I monitored her insulin shots and medications. b) I was a part of three end-of-life transitions working with both hospice in addition to team of caregivers to provide 24/7 care. c) I assisted my sister in her recovery after a kidney transplant. d) I helped both my mother and a friend with their rehabilitation exercises and recoveries after having had strokes. - Special Interest/Skill: Listening and Coaching by asking questions - which often assists people in discovering their own answers and in having interesting and meaningful conversations (with all types of people). - Background: 20+ years as an application programmer. - Other: If you're aware of the Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI); I'm an INFP (Introvert - Intuition - Feeling - Perception).
