Patience, when dealing with the elderly is essential for me as caregiver. I understand the well being of an elderly individual depends on my presence, and I commit to being there when I am needed. I am Confident. ... Attentive. ... Trustworthy. ... Supportive. ... Compassionate. ... Creative. I love to garden. I love all sorts of arts and crafts. My attraction to care giving started at a very young age, I loved my grandmother and would do anything in the world she asked me to. I knew that she loved me, as well as cared for me, Time took a toll on her life, The tables turned and I had to be there for my granny. She became wheel chair bound and needed help with every thing. Placing my grandmother in a nursing a facility was not an option for us. I took care of her, I left my place to move in with her, After years of a full life, at 96 my granny passed and I was sure she went to heaven, and that she was clean and well taken care of. I was later given another assignment to take care of my mother who is still living with Parkinson's Disease. I spent over 7 years with my mother. The transition was heart breaking. Helping her to bathe and dress, and to comb her hair was our daily routine. At times I had to feed her when the tremors were really bad. We never allowed Mom to give up or just lay around. I made sure she exercised every day, I was yelled at, made to leave her her alone because she didn't feel like it or what ever her reasons were. Id later revisit the request and we would Kiss and work things out. I wanted my mother to have it her way, I never ever wanted her to feel as if she didn't have a say in her life, My family and I have in place assistance for my mother in her home as well. I am personally proud of myself for being resilient. Having the will to move forward no matter what I face in this life. I can assure you, the I will be there for your family member as if they were mine. Sincerely Tasha
