About Donna

I worked in medical offices and hospitals for 25 years. In 2007 my mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and my father was in poor health with heart disease. They came to live with us and my husband and I provided 24 hour care for them for eight years. It was at that time I decided to become a CNA and provide care, comfort, and become a companion to our seniors and provide support to the family.

Why did I become a caregiver you ask. Growing up I always was around the older women in my family. I loved listening to all the old stories. When my grandma got sick I watched how her CNA will just come in and do her anyway. It break my heart. As I got older the love got stronger for elderly. The best part of being a caregiver is knowing that your able to help someone when they need you the most. I'm a young woman with a bright future ahead of me. I'm a mother of three beautiful little young men Alexander Lamar and Akai
