I began caregiving when I saw the struggle my father had with taking care of my stepmother in her last few months. She had dementia and was not able to take care of herself. My father was overwhelmed, scared, and didn't know how to get help. I stepped in and found that I was pretty good at it. When my father became unable to care for himself alone I started part time helping out with his needs. I became his full time caregiver for the last few years of his life and so glad I did. After his passing I was a live in caregiver for a couple for about a year. One passed and the other needed to be placed in a nursing home. This is when I begain working for Amada. I have moved to Colorado for a cooler climate, and I love it here.
