I have been helping people since I was younger. I mother always took in people, and I always helped her with them.I enjoy helping others, I feel like that's my calling. My daddy had an heart attack and died in my bathroom, I did CPR until the pandemics got there. I was amazed that I didn't panic and could help save him. I want to treat people the way I want to be treated. I love caring for others because you never know what could happen to you or your family. I treat everyone as if they were my family and how I would want my family or myself treated.
