The day I realized I wanted to care for people was when I was just sitting there watching my grandmother taking care of all us grandchildren. I was very close to my grandparents and learned from the best. When I became a wife and a mom, I knew then what my plans were for my future. I love taking care of the elderly and spending time with them. Just listening to them talk with all the wisdom and knowledge they have. I truly learn from that. I am very gentle and caring with the elderly as I know they need that and someone to listen and talk too. I would prefer for no bathing on males. We will all be there one day.
