Hello my name is Takiyannie but I go by Starr. I am a mother of two teenage children I am a single parent. I was raised by my grandmother who was my mother the only mother I knew so I called her "mommy". When I was in my early teens my mother became real ill, she went from being super independent to dependent something I knew she hated. With this transformation in my mother's life she was diagnosed with COPD Diabetes congested heart failure having to carry around an oxygen tank 24/7 limited to mobility, is was a very heart breaking experience because she was such a loving fun outgoing hard working woman she loved to be out shopping visiting family or working. So to be a witness of this as a child the love my mother showed others even strangers made me appreciate my elders even more on so many different levels that I felt its an honor to be able to give back to them by being a companion or simply taking care of them. I enjoyed ever moment of helping my mother in her time of need down to giving her insulin shots which is really uncomfortable for them to go through twice a day. If you don't have the passion or heart to under the journey of our elders this is not the job for you but I love to give back an being able to be there for them so they know everyone has not given up nor forgotten about them this is why I chose to become a caregiver.
