I became a caregiver at such a young age as watching my mother feeling so weak for caring for herself at the age of 8. I helped my mother because I love her and knew sometimes we all need a helping hand at time. When she dies when I was ten and as I got older, having job opportunities didn't quite make me smile as much as I did while helping my mother. So I wanted to make my mother to smile down on me so I decided to get my nurses license and I been caring for others since. Caring for other bring a smile to my heart and to my caregivers. I continue to care for others because one day we all will get older and I hope and pray that at that age I have someone as caring loving as me.
