I made an entrance into the caregiving world when my great Uncle was in need of someone to help him in 2011. He had Parkinson's as well as developing Alzheimer's and heart problems, and he was no longer able to care for himself. I was the only one who could be there for him and I gladly filled the role. There is such a great sense of satisfaction in helping someone complete their daily routines, and the bonding friendship that is shared is a blessing. I myself am a a great communicator and have a knack for interpreting needs and emotions, and relating to others. My great Uncle made me realize this and I successfully took care of him all the way through hospice to the end. I wouldn't take back any of the time I had with him, and look forward to building a wonderful relationship with you and your loved ones!
