My reason is , I love taking care of the elderly & they need someone who will be gentel with them. Over the years of being a cosmetologist, I have client's that are elderly and even though they don't ask, I help them with more than just hair. If they ever needed a ride I was willing to take them where they wanted to go, if they needed food, I'm willing to give them food that I can spare. I would sit there and listen to their stories and comfort them and give the jokes. Being a single mom to my awesome straight A student is one of my greatest achievements.
