I've always loved keeping people company and offering companionship. I started being a little care giver at the age of 12 when my great grandmother was passing away from multiple strokes. I enjoyed keeping her company, getting her things she needed and painting her nails for her was our special thing. I have grown up with a mother whom has MS so helping her cope and assisting her with A.D.L.'S is a natural thing for me. When I was 17 my 13 yer old brother was diagnosed with brain cancer and after getting Posterior Fossa Syndrome due to the removal of his tumor he needed a lot of love and help to get back to where he was since he lost all functions at first. So as I don't have much caregiver employment experience, I have plenty of life experience. There isn't enough people to help in the world so I am glad to be one of them.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
