I began my career after graduating with a degree in elementary education and mathematics, having took a job as an elementary, pre-school, and nursery school teacher in St. Mary's (Marirak) School in Thailand where I worked for seven years, I had over forty students at a time and oversaw their development, I would come to understand how important it was to take good care of these young souls and shape their minds to become young adults worthy of becoming great leaders ---and through out the course of time they would visit me after they've graduated and moved on to college. When I moved to the US after I got married I took a job as a caregiver where I looked over an advanced alzheimer's patient, it was a challenging task, lots of rehabs towards the end, lots of doctors and care specialists and visits to go to, much dead weight to handle, and when the alzheimers would kick in ...lots of resistence, but overall rewarding because, he was a kind and loving man..he would never forget his children's names. And I gained a second family. He had died not long ago of old age, of 92, and I had the honor of eulogizing him. Since then I try to keep busy with other things, as an EBAY and Amazon seller, If I can take away anything from of all my experiences, sometimes, only a few people get to know you're worth. But we have to make it better.
