I had a grandfather and a brother in law that were sick. I took care of them. After my dad passed away I decided I will be a caregiver because I know there many people out there that need care. I'm patient, kind and understanding when it comes to my patient i treat them how they deserve to be treated. If any one need help I'm glad to help out.
