1. For the love of helping others. Knowing that one day I may need a caregiver and when that time comes I would hope to come in contact with someone just like myself. 2. See the smiles on the faces of those that I care for as well as the gratitude that comes from the families. 3. One I would have to say is the fact that I look at myself as being the one I am caring for and I always thank God for the activity of my limbs each day but while caring for others I treat others how I would want to be treated. 4. I am a very loving and caring person I work in a residential facility now which I have for over ten years in the state of Virginia and many years prior in NYC I have a Masters degree in Education and counseling. I have been a caregiver personally for over thirty years and simply love what I do.
