I became a CNA after my father was in a horrible accident and saw how truly important nurses and nursing assistants are. They took care of my father and helped him to live even though we were told several times he would die. That was more than 10 years ago and he still appreciates those nurses and nursing assistants every day. I want to do for others what they did for my father. I like knowing my patient is well cared for and happy and that I am a part of that. When I see my patients smile or laugh it makes my day. It gives me a sense of happiness knowing that I'm helping to change someone's like everyday. A personal achievement I'm proud of IS becoming a CNA. Its a hard job but at the end of the day you know you helped someone in need. I am also very proud of being a mother and taking care of her on my own. She is my life and heart. About me, like I just said, I am a single mother with no help from the father. I am a very empathetic person and always seem to feel what others are feeling. I love reading and meeting new friends and going to church.
