Well my name is Christina, have 3 kids doing it by myself. My personality traits as a caregiver is that I love it, I can't see myself doing anything else. What attracted me to being a caregiver was seeing my grandma in a facility watching the caregivers take care of my grandma, and since then that's when I knew I wanted to be a caregiver. In 2020 I had take care of my dad, he had stage 4 cancer and I had to be his caregiver, did it all the way til he passed and he was put on hospice for not even a full week til he passed.
