About Melinda

I feel that helping people in a real, hands on way is my calling in life! Is it because I took care of my mother when she was declining with cancer, while I was only a teenager? Also I have had my own life threatening illnesses in the past, rendering me helpless and bedridden and depending on others, even while in my prime. I am fulfilled by being a helping hand, or even a lifeline, to someone in need, all to be of service, as there, but by the grace of God, I could be in the same predicament someday!! I pride myself on my compassion and empathy, and just helping people out! I am proud to have raised 2 very well adjusted children into adults, and I live a very health conscious lifestyle. I live simply, that others may simply live, and try to cause no harm while being here!
