About Doristus

I am highly compassionate, I'm a people person and I love making a difference in someone's life. I love putting a smile on their faces. What attracted me was my grandmother. I took care of her during her last days on earth and made it memorable for the both of us. What I enjoyed most is making a difference in someone's day! I am proud to say that i am a great mother that's my biggest achievement being a mom.

I have cared for my husband who was handicapped for seven years before his death in 2011. I have friends and acquaintances who have health problems, mental and physical, whom I look in on with a phone call or a personal visit. I enjoy being a caregiver because it makes me happy to make someone else happy.
