About Patricia

I became a care giver because I love people & want to make a difference in someone's life. I enjoy being a caregiver because I feel we all will need help one of these days. I lived with my Mother for 9 years because she had Dementia/ Alzheimers. I was in a Auto Accident with my Daughter & it was a my worse nightmare, I had to walk with a walker,i had to sit on the steps just to go up 12 steps to go to the bathroom I rehabbed to my Mothers' house to help me and watch her. She was great, always trying to make my struggle easier, but I was proud and needed to do for myself most of the time. I loved her for being her. A nursing home in Bay Shore gave her too much drugs that made her have a stroke, Her Dr there came in only 1 day weekly, the nursing home didn't send her to the ER until 4 days later. She died on Jan 4, 2008. She's my HERO and Angel in Heaven.
