About Misty

I am the 41 year old mother of three boys. I was raised by my Great Grandmother and my Grandmother. They took excellent care of me and then I took excellent care of them. My Great Grandmother was a diabetic requiring two shots a day, she also had heart problems. My Great Grandmother eventually lost her leg to diabetes. She also developed dementia toward the end of her life. My Grandmother also had diabetes, she fell and broke both of her ankles, then she lost 80% of her vision and later developed dementia. I have always been drawn to elderly people. I feel like I have a special connection with them, I guess that comes from my upbringing.

I am always pleasant, I strive to be punctual. Every individual I have worked with has always had good things to say about me. I think the conversation and companionship with the elderly is amazing. I am a retired hairdresser of 35 years and when I was home I new I would have to find something to occupy my time and being a care giver seem to be the best fit for me.Now I am 10 years into the care giving and I love it

I am a mother of three daughters . I have always been taking care of someone. When I was a teen I babysat and in my late teens I took care of my grandmother who was dying of cancer. I have done fill in work for my aunt who use to work as an in home aid caregiver. I have worked for two years in a chiropractic office working with older people. I enjoy being with people and learning from them and being able to help them to live their lives to the best of their abilities. That is what I love about care giving. It is not just a job but a way of connecting to other people and being able to help them and do it for a living. I am proud of being able to raise my daughters because I have been a single parent for the majority of their lives. I obtained my Associates degree while raising them and I am twenty four hours away from receiving my Bachelors degree in Christian Counseling and Caregiving and my daughters are my reason for continuing to get better as a person.
