I am from three generations of caregivers, I realized I had a calling with taking care of people when my grandmother became gravely ill with breastfeeding cancer! I was so afraid that she would pass away that instead of going to college right after high school, I stayed home and helped my dad take care of her! Once she seemed like she'd get better and be okay! I immediately began applying for job ads that asked people to help take care of their loved ones! I am excellent at what I do not because of the calling totally or because I am a third generation caregiver, but because deep down in my heart i care about the well being of people whether young, old, sick, or just disabled! I love to make people and their families smile, through the trying times!
