Currently I live in Prudenville, Mi. My family is relocating to Fremont at the beginning of May. It is very hard for me to leave my current job because I have been with some of my residents for 5 years now. They have become a second family to me. I love the relationships I have built with my people. My father in law passed away suddenly 8 years ago, that was what sparked my interest in care giving. I wanted to make a difference, to learn, to give back to the elderly. When I started my job I had no clue what I was getting myself into. I was a parent but hadn't cared for elderly people. This has made me a better person, I have a softer approach to life now. The difficulties have made me more patient, caring, and understanding.
