I have had a lot of experiences being a caregiver for my grandmother. She was dealing with a lot if challenges everyday from being a diabete, having arthritis, having to wear an ostomy bag, reduce vision; which prevented her from driving anymore, and she suffer from alztheimers. It was a challenge, but most importantly, if felt good to be that person to help her get through it all. So having the opportunity to be a caregiver for someone who may need an unlifted spirit, to have transportation to get around, to be reminded of things, and or to assist with medical challenges I definitely would be the person to find joy in help some in need if my assistance.
