I became a caregiver mainly because it was a field I can take care of others in time in need. I t gave me the capability to utilize my caring skills for others. The title caregiver gives me the sense that a good sense that somebody is in good hands using professionalism, flexibility, determination, also open heart. I found a worked with a good friend and kept it professional with my patient I worked with for ten years. We did a lot of things keeping the friendship alive. Since we liked the same movies, we went to the movies a lot. We liked almost the same foods, and we went out to eat a lot. We both like to go fishing also he would like to talk about his past, about family, old friends. I got to know him better over the years. I myself am a family man, I love to be around my family, even on my days off. I also focus on out door sports to keep myself busy, when I'm not around my family.
