About Lolita

I have worked for a health plan company for 36 years. I was raised to take care of My brother with Down syndrome and my grand dad with dementia. I believe the trait of being patient and respecting and wanting to help other is the legacy my brother taught me. It's a gift I will always treasure. I am not as swift and physical able as I use to be but I am darn good go to Person. I still reach out by being Uber driver, running errands l, light house cleaning and bathing to the elder and physically challenged. I need them to trust me that's my achievement.
