About Tina

I have a friend that has MS and I would go to his house to visit him and I would end up helping him clean his apartment and do his laundry and one day he said you know you can get paid for this and I said ok great sign me up and he gave me a phone number of a place to call and set up an appointment and started working for community works. I love helping people that need and appreciate it. I love when I start working for someone and if they are right out of the hospitals or rehab and they are not able to do much for them selves and in a few months later they are able to shower themselves and back to there former selves causebI worked with them I feel great. I am an only child raised by a single mother who work three and four jobs to get us out of the projects and she did it by herself and she raised me to be a caring, loving independent woman, I have been married for 21 years and I have a 17 year old son that has a big heart thatvis what I have past on to him from my mother and Im very prood and thankful for my little family.
