I have had a lot of experience helping my grandmother who can no longer walk more than a couple steps with or without a walker, her vision is going as is her health so I have helped her over the years which really is what gave me the heart to help others as well. I understand the difficulty of being at home alone when there is so little you can do for yourself and I wish to ease that burden even just a little bit. I enjoy the conversations that I have with people when helping to take care of them, learning about their life experiences and fun stories from life, since every person has a different outlook. I am proud of living abroad for a year with a strange family and taking care of their kids while I was there. I was able to be with that family and learn from them, to me that was very valuable.
