I have always been of a compassionate nature. Other than my five children, I have frequently cared for family members, either ill or injured. My maternal grandparents relied on me to assist them in their later years, as does my mother now. Dozens of clients' family members have thanked me for the extra time I spent caring for their loved ones. I believe God gives everyone a special gift: mine is the gift of comforting the sick. I have no other explanation; it seems to come naturally to me. I derive great satisfaction from knowing that I made someone feel better, even if only for a time. I try not to be proud, because I realize how blessed I have been. I have a strong marriage, healthy and happy children and grandchildren, and my health. The satisfaction I receive in helping others gives purpose to my life and joy to my soul.
