What makes me not a great care giver but, a good caregiver are tools of education, understanding, knowledge and compassion with an emphasis on debilitating diseases. I became a caregiver when my husband was diagnosed with Interstitial Pulmonary Disease he was given five years life expectancy. I learned how to best care for him which was challenging in every way imaginable. At the same time I enrolled in a CNA program worked at a convalescent hospital night shift in the Alzheimer Unit in Grass Valley California from 2003 thru 2007. In all these experiences what I took to heart years later was very effective in caring for my mother. My personal achievement in this line of work is having family and friends trusting me with their care which is endearing to me.
