My dad had cancer, saw him through treatments for 8 years . He was diagnosed with stage 4 onset of his diagnosis. I later moved in with them , then my dad was out in hospices ,he only lived for 2 weeks more , he passed in 2008 . I stayed living with my mom for 8 months after my dad passed , then later I brought her to live with me after her stroke in 2010. I now live Chandler, Arizona since Dec 2017 , to be here to see my younger grandchildren grow up. It was a true blessing to be able to care for both of my parents. And now to be with my grandchildren .. God has truly blessed me . As I said, I love caring for the elderly , it's something that gives me my purpose in life ,

What makes me a great caregiver. Well it's easy to answer my love, compassion, respect for elderly I've a caregiver since 2010 because taking care of a good friend whom had several health issues later on she convinced me to get my certification in order to work with others in need of help she thought I could be great in the field needless to say love the health care field I'm taking classes to enroll into the nursing program pretty soon. Have some other certifications like certificate to administrate medications, O2 equipment, mental illness,trained to use medical equipment as well. I have had many different cases in the past. I feel pretty comfortable providing total care.

Loving and caring has become a purpose for me in my life. After taking care both of my parents first was my mother and then my father. I did everything that I see fit to make them enjoy the last of their days. Sharing that experience through service relive the last days of my parents. The accomplishment of serving others gives me the blessing of doing something good. I am doing my job as caregiver with that good feeling it's my own .
