The only caregiving I've ever provided care for were family members including my father, and 2 sisters and my niece who all were diagnosed with terminal cancer and I assisted along with other family members caring for them after their cancer surgeries and treatments. Unfortunately, they all succumbed to their cancer but I was able to help them stay home rather than going to a facility prior to them passing. My 84 year old mother is also in remission for cancer but currently lives with my sister in MD. I am almost 60 years old. I live alone and I retired from a nearly 20 year career owning a trucking business with my husband. I went through a divorce in 2016 and I live alone and have freedom of my time. I'm looking to fill in about 25 hours a week to offer companionship and basic needs for someone's loved one. Helping people keep their loved ones at home like my family did for our family members is very important to me. I am a Christian. I do not smoke and I love helping others. I'm open to interviewing to get to know me. I love making someone smile and helping them have more good days than bad ones.
