I became a caregiver because I grew up in a children's home and there was a particular elder lady who took an interest in me. I grew to love her and felt a need to protect her, as we developed a close bond. When I became 18, I was visiting her at the nursing home until she passed unfortunately. In addition, I love working with the elderly & interacting with them.
