I am a happy patient person who loves her life and doing for others. I love animals, I enjoy looking at pictures and learning about people's lives. I'm a good listener and enjoy talking. My wonderful Mother who was a nurse and the type of person that helped me see how lucky I was in my life. She helped me to look at people where they stood, no judgement, but take the time to see them. My Mom would introduce us to people in public that some would stare at, including me. We would say hello, we wanted to meet you. Some of the mom's would thank us saying how most people look at them funny or as if they are freaks. One man told us about how he lost his arm and why he had a hook in its place. As I grew up I always took the time to get to know people and really care.

I'm strong and have healing hand in the sense of warm to the touch and can give help to sore spots. I like to assist in what people need and I enjoy taking the time. I like making things look nice and I love to cook for everyone. I was able to take care of my Mom before she died. My husband and I moved in with my mom and dad for the last 2 years. I felt it was a privilege to care for my parents who gave me so much love. I know my mom was very grateful for the help, but what made me feel good was that she knew I honestly felt it a privilege to care for her.
