Im a 38 year old mom of 4, I've been a stay at home mom for the past 6 years, since I was pregnant with my daughter. My son was born is may of 22, nicu baby for 7 weeks. Found out he has a deadly disease called myotonic dystrophy type 1, (daughter has it too), He came home from the portland hospital and I was his main caregiver. 7 trips back and for for him to portland almost ever month with the same sickness, always on oxygen. He lost his battle april of 23 he came home on hospice. Having that experience, i would putting the same care in to other people, as much as I possibly can with my whole heart. I cook, clean, do laundry, the basic household things that are needed. I've worked in 2 care facilities years ago and I enjoyed the wonderful stories that they shared with me. Watching them smile and have fun at such ages was amazing to watch. Im looking for jobs to allow me to still be able to be home with my kids, as they are my greatest achievements in life.
