I make a fantastic caregiver and companion because I genuinely love to be around people and I have what I call an old soul I can relate more to older people and myself I'm 36 years old and I've always raised my grandparents or people of that generation and I have a lot of patience because I know they get very easily and I will always be the one that would give him his medicine color blind and has malaria and COPD and eventually I ended up taking care of him 24/7 and all his appointments driving him to the bank to Walmart just to take a walk to get some exercise and things of that nature cuz I actually take pleasure in it
