About Patricia

I am a In Home Support care giver. I have experience with disabled, Alzheimer and Parkinson Disease, I became a care giver when my daughter went on dialysis. I am currently living in a 55+ community and I visit widows that can not drive or have no visitors. As my father battled liver cancer I was his care giver without pay. I changed his diapers, washed him in bed, feed him soft foods; and turned him every four hours to prevent bed soars. I have a great mount of respect for older adults. At times my neighbor who lost her husband during my visits with Ruth she would tell me the same story and show me the same pictures of her family. I received her information and showing of pictures of letter as if it were the first time. I am patient and really blessed to have a mom who is 96. My greatest achievement is treating people as I would like to be treated. Patience to listen, be polite and offer assistance to those need to shop for home supplies and groceries or simply visiting. The greatest achievement is Integrity! I am separated from my husband since 2005, I have a son in college on a scholarship with goals of becoming a pilot. I have a daughter that lives with me she used to be diabetic; however with a pancreas and kidney transplant she is no longer diabetic.
