It was at that time I realized that was my passion, to take care of ones that could not take of themselves. Young, old or babies it has never mattered to me. just to put a smile on someone face was all I needed. after high school I planned on going to nursing school but that was pushed aside because I had already given birth to my second son, so I needed money fast, at that time I was introduced to a nursing home that was offering can training so I applied and finished the coarse that was 2000, I have been a certified nurses assistant.
