I've taken care of many senior citizens as far as Helping them with housework, cleaning, cooking and assisting them to doctor appointments or whatever They would like to do even if it was just a short drive to get them out of the house. I've been told by many people that I do have a warm, sincere personality and get along with everyone. One experience I used to go to my job every morning at 8am and I met these older senior citizen living alone and from seeing him every morning we started to chat for several minutes. The one morning was a major snowstorm and he was out getting his newspaper and he fell. He could not get up, I pulled my car over got out with my high heel boots and dress long leather jacket in 2 feet of snow and helped him up and back into his house. He tried to give me $20, he was so happy that I helped him he couldn't thank me enough. I was just grateful that I was able to be there at that time in need. I visit him often to make sure he's okay or if he needs anything. It made me feel so good that I was able to help him.
