About Cherry

I am a great Caregiver because I put myself in another persons position. I treat people the way that I would want to be treated If I am ever in need of care. I always take peoples feelings into consideration before I make a decision. To me, a Caregiver must first and foremost actually "care". It is not possible to take care of a person properly if one does not care. It is important to always consider another persons feelings. This is what I am most proud of. I am most proud of the fact that my work with elderly and disabled persons is my passion. I don't have to work hard because I enjoy helping them. To me, it is work, but it is a work of joy and gratification. I suppose that because I am now older (56 yrs.) I have a certain level of peace and acceptance within my soul. I don't have the capacity to be biased nor to judge. My capacity is only to be accepting of others. Over the years I have raised two sons; They are respectful and accepting of others as well. We, as a part of the living world, are here to help each other. No one is unworthy. I am a college graduate with a Bachelors Degree. My background has been extensively in public relations, senior care and customer service. I believe that we are all here to serve the Lord, and to do what is pleasing in his sight. I believe that this is all of our sole purposes for being on earth.
