Hi how are you ..my name is Camille Walton and I feel God has called me to be a care giver my whole life ..I love caring for and helping others . I was introduced to care giving very young I would go to work with my mother who was a care giver of multiple patients, I absolutely loved it they became my best friends. A few years later my mother got cancer that was the first time I had to personally care for someone by myself after school I would make sure she ate, made sure we got to her appointments, I would bathe her , wash her clothes as well as cleaning the house and making sure she took her medicine, I was only in middle school and it was imperative to me that my studies were still up to par it was alot but like I mentioned before it made me feel good to help someone who needed me . After this experience with my mom in high-school I would care for one of my close friends grandmother after school I bathed her and gave her her medications as well as feeding her. She had back and shoulder problems as well so I would always make to massage her a few times a week and make sure her nails and feet were also cut, clean , and not in pain. Not long after my mother had a stroke and lost control over both of her arms again and that is when I became her full time care giver again, and I now still handle all of my mothers important business even though I stay 8 hours away from her. In fact what brought me back to NC was my great grandmother she is 86 has dementia and diabetes she needed around the clock care so I came to help her , my daily duties were to weigh her every morning, give her her medicine and feed her breakfast, she also has to have her diaper changed every so often and her bed sheets washed and changed everyday along with meal plans and cleaning the entire house . I never cared about getting paid I just want people to know they are loved and cared about I want to be the help someone needs . Thank you and u can't wait to hear from you soon.
