I became a caregiver when my father was diagnosed with cancer and my older sister became paralyzed that same year. I lost my father in 2009. I was my sisters caregiver for 61/2 years just recently stopped. I like the new learning experiences that happen everyday. I am very proud of all I have learned, using a transfer board, holier lift. shower bench plus lots more. I am 43 years old a mother of three beautiful daughters with two grandchildren and I have been married for 26 years. I feel very blessed to have all this in my life... I still have one daughter in high school this will be her jr year. I am very involved in her sports and everyday life.
