About Monique

I became a care taker after caring for my mother (a cancer patient) for three years. It actually fell into my lap, when a friends, friend was looking for help caring for his mother. It was such a blessing, because it directed me in to care taking as a profession. I believe I am a compassionate and friendly care giver because I was once a patient while going through cancer treatment. I understand how it feels to be scared or frustrated with be disabled. Being that helpless gives you a different perspective when dealing with those who are now feeling that same way. I am proud of the kind hearted and compassionate person it has made me become and bring to my work . It is rewarding to help those in need and make them as comfortable as possible through whatever care they need.

I cared for his mother, Mary who suffered late onset Alzheimer's disease. The job including all care taking duties included but not limited to bathing, diaper changing, dressing, feeding, and medication distribution. Mary was non ambulatory and in a wheel chair, therefore I am also trained in lifting techniques . I stayed over with her 24 hour shifts when Tibor went out of town. I also cleaned, did laundry for Mary, and fed the animals with any spare time I had while working.

I have always loved taking care of people at all stages in life. My niece was premature 3lb 2oz I was with her the day that little girl came into this world. Fighting for everything she had. She is autistic and she is such an amazing person her drive to become somthing extraordinary in her own little way. She suffers from type 1 diabetic and life has handed her a tough card but she never is unhappy about anything. I try to love my life like her. Every day just giving even if it's just a little to bring a smile and make someone laugh can do amazing things. Iv have sat at bed side of the ill holding a hang of a greaving husband. I have also held a hand of someone who was scared to pass away alone. I was with her till the end. I try to love, smile and even cry with all because we are all human and we should never be alone. If I can just bring that one day of happy then Iv done my job!
