If I could do anything for free for the rest of my life, I'd be providing for others. I enjoy making the lives of others easier. Coming from a family who has several individuals with a wide variety of ailments, I've seen first hand the toll it can have on a family unit but I also know how to care for individuals who cannot care for themselves at the current moment. Throughout the years, I've acquired patience, flexibility, creative thinking and a large amount of optimism needed to continue pushing forward with day to day tasks. I do not mind being someone to talk to for an hour or more, a therapist for venting sessions and tales of the past, even a friend to someone who needs that company when their family is away. There's no price for compassion and I provide plenty of it.
