Growing up I always knew that helping the elderly was something I wanted to get into as I got older. I have a special spot in my heart knowing that I could potentially make a huge difference in someone's like when they need it most. I guess knowing everyone will get older and for some, it's really hard. I just believe that I could make that difference for someone. What I find amazing is that I have been lucky to have made such great friends. Friends who don't have much family or many friends to see, visit or talk to. So I enjoy being able to be that friend. I enjoy the trust that comes along with those friendships.
