I became a caregiver because i love the interaction and the ability to bring and be the happiness in someones life. as many families don't come around often and to be able to be an assistance in someones everyday life. I like meeting new people of all ages and providing them the care that they can no longer do themselves. A personal achievement for me is nursing my mother back to health she took ill shortly after i graduated from high school and she still wanted me to leave for college. So i did but i came back every chance i had to take care of her, she couldn't do the things she used to such as cook,clean, wash herself etc. and now in this present time she is back healthy walking and talking doing everything a mother and a newly made grandmother should be doing. I am a 20 year old college student majoring in biology this is my 3rd year i am on my way to becoming a family doctor. I love the outdoors biking, walking, softball, swimming etc. I am an outgoing person with a unforgettable personality.
