About Karla

Hello! I began care-giving for my grandmother at a very young age. She was my world. She had type 1 diabetes and cancer. I went w/her to all of her clinic appt's, made her breakfast and lunch, and gave her insulin shots twice daily. I always attended senior community clubs & due to that interaction I have always felt connected to the elderly. They inspire me and I find all of their stories amazing. I have Volunteered in Hospice. I was a caregiver for a 96 year old woman with dementia, diabetes, and cancer. I recently worked for a 46 year old female that had surgery complications and was bed ridden. She is well now and a good friend of mine.I enjoy caring and loving and spending quality time with people, especially those in need. We are all in need at some point in our lives and how beautiful it is when we have someone there for us. Someone we can trust and depend on. I am very mature for my age, respectful, and have alot of common sense. Your loved one will be safe with me.
