About Ericka

I became a caregiver when both my parents became sick. My father who had a heart attack and bypass surgery at that time I helped take care of him as well as my mother. About 5 years later my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was then I had to leave my job and took care of her on a 24 hour basis. It was also then when I thought I really enjoy being a caregiver. I went to school for Medical Assistant and then Phlebotomy. I enjoy helping others along with cooking.
