When I was 18 years old, I was very sick with a lot of Gastrointestinal disorders. I was hospitalized for more than 50 days at one point. Being able to go through many challenges has allowed me to have compassion for my patients. I am able to relate to a lot of them in many ways. It is a blessing being able to give back in return to my community. I love being able to share my testimony with my patients. It allows me to connect with my patients on a personal level and have a relationship with them. As a care giver I was attracted to being able to have relationships with my patients. I loved being able to have conversations with them and develop friendships with them. It is rewarding to be someone's companion. A lot of time my patients just want someone to talk to and listen to them. I knew going through all of my health issues and being on the other side as a patient, that the lord was calling me to give back in return. And being able to give the same quality of care that was given to me. As a caregiver, I enjoy being able to go to work every single day, to do what I love. Which is providing the best care for my patients. Wether it's cooking them a meal, taking them out on a grocery run, playing the piano for them or even just sitting down and hearing about their childhood. I enjoy making my patients smile, especially when I can see they've had a rough day. One way I connect with my patients is through humor. I enjoy being able to make jokes and laugh with my patients. One personal achievement I am proud of is becoming a newly dad. I have always wanted to be father. And now that the lord has allowed me to become one, It is such a blessing to be new dad for my baby girl. I enjoy being home with my daughter and look forward to coming home to her when I get home from work. It is one of the most rewarding gifts from my Heavenly father.
