-My great grandmother whom is in her late 70's caught pneumonia. She has had many health issues in the past including a heart attack that damaged 1/3rd of her heart that they can not repair because the surgery is more of a risk then to leave her heart the way it is. -I love what I do in helping each client I've ever worked with. Taking care of sick people that needs my help gives me joy in my heart and it let me know they need people to work with them that care. -Continuing to be a caregiver even on my worst days when i want to give up, the thought of helping people always remind me on why I do it and the joy I get from it. -I got in this profession not knowing what to expect and since I started I wouldn't want to be doing anything else with my life.
