About Patricia

I chose to be a care giver, because I love people and love helping them. It is important to always give them a listening ear, enabling them to share their life stories. I get great joy letting them do as much as they can for themselves without putting their self in harms way. I love being able to support them with their daily activities, that they are unable to do. The achievement that I am most proud of is believing in myself and God to have the strength to fight a disease R.S.D that had crippled me for eleven and a half years. I have an understanding of life struggles and this is another reason I love to be with people. I really want to finish school and I am going to fight for it. I am married to a wonderful man and we have been married for twenty six year's.
