I was contacted to be this lady's driver and to keep her company and things of her need. Shortly after I started, a few months later, she had to start dialyses and then we started doing things around this time, we became very good friends shortly and was kind of fun, I would say, very pleasant between her and her husband that survived her. I would cook once in a while some dinner or many lunchs, what ever she felt like. She really liked to go out and shop, this was a big thing in her life.... I had a lot fun with them including through them, I met my husband.

My interest in caregiving started at an early age. Every sunday after church I would visit the sick and shut in members and others who requested prayers. I then attended a Medical Specialty High School and was involved in volunteering at local Adult Day Cares. When I was about 15 years of age my grandmother started developing Dementia and shortly after had a stroke. I became her main caregiver; cooking, cleaning, reading to her when not in school. I love the fact that I get to make a difference in someones day to day life. I tried many different ventures and always ends back into caregiving. This is what I'm meant to do and I'm good at it and enjoy doing it.
