My experience with care giving started 5 years ago with my Mom. Unfortunately her health deteriorated and it was necessary for me to take care of her full-time, 24 hours a day. She suffered from arthritis, COPD, Alzheimer s and other ailments associated with aging. I love being a caregiver now so I can give and share love with others.
