I became a caregiver because of my mother who suffer from congested heart failure. She has been my inspiration to go back to school and to give back to those who can't do it themselves. We all owe it to our parents and the elderly for all the opportunities they have given us over the years. What I love about being a caregiver is the wisdom and advice the patients had for our younger generation. My personality traits are kind, affectionate, trustworthy, loyal, positive, outgoing, and caring. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is the time I get to spend which each patient and learn about them.
