I am a very caring person, lots of patience, always willing to go above and beyond the work. I've been a caregiver for 9 yrs. I've taken care of retired military families, elderly seniors who want to be in their own home where they feel independent, my dad who had Alzheimer's, dementia, stroke, and lung problems. I've learned so much from elderly seniors that I didn't know. I just love on them as though they're my family, because sometimes we all need some caring and love and compassion from someone other than family. I am 57 years old, married one daughter and two grand daughters. I also help take care of my mother n law who has Alzheimer, she is 81 yrs old and just as sweet as she can be.
