About Terry

I have always been a very caring person. In junior high I volunteered to work with handicapped children. My major in college was social work. I loved (and do love) every minute of being a mother. I volunteered in both my daughter's pre-school and elementary school. I later got my medical assisting certification. The idea of being a companion came out of helping someone I knew who became ill. Without someone to help her, there were many things she would not have been able to get done. If I needed help I would want someone caring and kind to make my life easier and fun, and I think I can do that.

I am interested in doing the best I can on a daily basis which means giving care fits me. I was in a serious accident and lost my voice. I was able to become a caregiver by helping out around the house and driving others to their appointments. While my voice healed the job requirements changed, I did more for Bernice and her family as she started declining in her health. I was with her and her husband for about two years. I helped establish a system in their house so that they both could age without worry. I was more than a worker I became part of their family. When Bernice became bed stricken I decided to go back to school. I'm excited for new opportunities. :->
