I became a caregiver due to my grandmother being really sick at a old age. I was 12 years of age, helping her with everything; anything u can name I did for her until the day she passed away. The best part of being a caregiver I enjoy is helping others that need the kind and gentle help who can't help themselves. Especially the elderly, I may need someone's help some day. A personal achievement I am proud of today is getting accepted into a performing arts school I've always wanted to go to. Somethings I do on my free time is work out, sing, movies, skating and traveling etc.
