At the age of 17, I became a caregiver to my best friend, my ageing grandmother whom I care for to best I could.and that led me to become a caregiver. 3. Being a caregiver is my pride and joy to help those who otherwise not able to do so for themselves, smile I put on their faces and meeting new friends in my life. 4. My personal achievement is, I am proud off is being able to stand on my own feet and support my kids after the lost of their father and put them through school and got them to be productive citizens.
