I became a CNA because I helped with my grandfather who had Alzheimer and I wanted to be certified so that I could help others. I enjoy spending time with the the client and feeling that I have done something to help someone who needed me. One personal goal that I have reached has been getting my Associate degree. Now I am seven classes away from my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. I enjoy playing piano and singing in my church. I got married in October of 2013 and I have been out of work since the first of May because we did not get to see each other because he works nights. Now I am getting restless because I have always worked. I have two beautiful daughters that I raised pretty much alone except with some help from my parents.
