About Kathryn

I am an active, supportive and intelligent young woman who loves to help people as much as possible. I have cared for my uncle who had Parkinson's/Alzheimer's disease; sadly he passed in 2009. I also helped my mother care for my stepfather who was diagnosed with lung cancer and has been in remission for 4 years. He has recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer and I am currently assisting him with appointments, companionship, and reminders. I enjoy the time spent as a caregiver and the assurance that my abilities provide.
