I am a 37 year old veteran who began caring for others as teen. Since then I have gained a greater knowledge and a stronger interest in caring for others who cant care for themselves. In the beginning this was about caring for my mom and grandparents so some would say it was initially an obligation . Over time it became so much more than that because during my care for them I always felt like you have to provide service to others the way that you would like for them to care for you or your loved ones. My greatest achievement has been the fact that I have the ability to make others comfortable no matter what there circumstances are and what their mental compacity has become.
